Have you checked though how this information is obtained? Your player
may be checking the CD agains a CDDB data base in order to obtain that
info. (Very few commercial CDs actually include CD-Text)

Just because it supports reading CD-Text, doesn't mean it supports
writing CD-Text (although it very well may). Also, you will generally
have better success writing CDs like this in RAW mode, if your burner
supports it.
If you must buy a different CD burner in order to get the features you
want, I would recommend Plextor.
