FYI - Looking up discs on another computer

I answered this question on the list server - I thought it might have some general interest.

Yes, this is pretty easy.

When you do the disc search, check the box labeled "queue discs for later
lookup" before you start. CDJ will gather the disc information, but not go
to CDDB. The discs will be given a temporary title "*** Queued ...". Save
that library file and take it to another computer with internet
connectivity. Load the library into CDJ and hit the search for discs button
again. This time hit the "lookup queued" button. CDJ will look up the
queued discs in CDDB. Save the lib and bring it back to the other computer.
