What is the data format of DeluxeCD.mdb?

As the file extension let's you guess, it is a Microsoft Access database. You may "easily" examine it with a database explorer. The tables are:

Batch
For storing a list of "unknown" CDs that are to be requested from the web.
 
Menus
List of program menus individual for each CD. Sample: "more info about 'Beatles' from commercial-dealer.com". The menu items are shown in Deluxe CD Player.
 
Titles
For each CD, there are well known fields (as in cdplayer.ini) like
  • Artist
  • Title
  • Numtracks
  • PlayList
as well as "new" fields like
  • TitleID
  • Copyright
  • Label
  • ReleaseDate
  • NumMenus
  • TitleQuery
