No. You can play the audio content using the Open MG Bundled player included on your disc; the player should automatically start once the disc is inserted in the PC. If you want to play the music on a PC without the disc, or if you want to export the tracks to a portable device, you must first install the Music Player software which is in the bin/win32 folder of your OMG disc.

You cannot directly transfer music from a CD to the player. You will need to transfer the CD to MP3 or WMA format. MP3 is an independent standard and WMA is the file format created by Windows Media Player. There are many software programs available that let you transfer CD's to MP3 format. An example is Musicmatch (http://www.musicmatch.com/) or itunes (http://www.apple.com/itunes/). If using Windows 98, software will need to be installed.
