 Easy way to add CD-ROM

The importing is not the issue, it is the tedious task of adding each area. 
I have 30 plus cds which have 50 plus areas on each.  I have done a few 
already and can see it is going to take me a LONG time.  Programs like addrom 
do the trick nicely but it doesn't work on ra 2.50+.  I was hoping someone 
had found a quicker way of doing it.

Thank you for your reply,

Grant
