# CD Check - Compares files burned to CD with the original files.
#
#
# This utility should be used directly after burning the CD
# and before archival to check if the data on the CD is 
# legitimate or some kind of buffer error caused it to become
# corrupt or changed.
#
# Some CD Recording software contain such a utility by default
# for example Nero Burning ROM, but some don't. There's where
# this script comes in handy.
