That would be interesting. All Apple's CDs are in Macintosh HFS format, which
means you're going to have an interesting time trying to read them from a
machine running Windows. So how you're going to get the player software onto
a Windows machine?

Yeah, I know, copy them onto DOS-format floppies from a Mac running Apple
File Exchange, or DOS Mounter, or something...

I wonder how much of Windows they had to reinvent...
