Need a quick poll from you guys on which CD-i software is CD-i Ready format.

Off the top of my head I remember the following:

Accelerator
Dimo's Quest
The Apprentice

I've never tried to extract any other SPC titles but i'm guessing they are also CD-i Ready. In fact did any other company outside of SPC use this format?

Adding to the CD-i Ready list

No, CD-i Ready is a special format where the CD-i track is "hidden" in the pregap before the first audio track; this was supposed to provide for better compatibility with audio cd players.

You can recognize a CD-i Ready disc because the audio tracks start from track 01; on a "regular" CD-i disc the audio tracks start from track 02.
