Overview

Jukebox software is designed to allow your PC to act and appear as a jukebox. Much like

game emulators, there is a GUI to enhance this effect. Jukeboxes often require you to

rip your music from CD's to your PC.

Arcade Jukebox 8

Created by Mark J. Schwartz, this software runs on Windows-based PC's, and is a singles-based software. Quite possibly, this may be the jukebox software that started it all. Different "skins" can be utilized, although creation of new skins by the end-user may or may not be allowed at this time. Freeware
