That's easy. Use CDDB-1.08 along with Win32::API. Check out Win32-MCI-CD-0.02 and then do some research to figure out how to get the TOC (should be a matter of looking it up in the manual)

If you can't figure out how to do it using Win32::API (at one point I was looking into how to do it, but I lost interest -- it is possible using mci), i think you should be able to extract the info you need using cdlib-0.4.4 (i looked into writing a wrapper to the library, but it's easier to just use the binary, cdlib.exe)

update: Here's how the pythong folks do it http://cddb-py.sourceforge.net/CDDB/win32/mci.c.

Between this and the CDA details from http://www.wotsit.org, you read the info you need and feed it to CDDB to query by "id".

update: I have written Get CDDB info on Win32.

MJD says "you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!"
I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
