Paragon CD-ROM Emulator 2.0 - The virtual high-speed CD-ROM machine! Paragon CD Emulator opens a whole new world of options and possibilities.

Listen to your favorite music while working with one or more CD based applications. You have access to more than 20 virtual CD-ROM drives simultaneously.
The old-fashion and frustrating CD disk change cycle "CD insert - CD eject - search new CD - insert new CD" is now a thing of the past. Work with 20 and more inserted CDs at the same time and with any CD change just a few mouse clicks away.
Network PCs have immediate shared access to thousands of CD images stored on a central server. Laptops or any other PC without a physical CD-ROM drive, are now able to work with CDs.
Store your valuable CD originals in a safe place, totally secure from any kind of damage.
Compose your own CD images by adding and removing single CD tracks to/from an image. Supported track formats at this time are ISO, MP3 and WAV.
No more CD-ROM drive noise and no wating for CD-ROM drives to speed up.
No more read error messages caused by scratched CD surfaces.
No more searching for misplaced, borrowed or in some other way unavailable CD disks.
