CD-ROM Today was an American magazine targeted to computer users. Published from 1993 to 1996 by Imagine Publishing (now Future US), the magazine was initially issued once every other month, before being changed to a monthly. Each issue included software and hardware reviews, as well as a CD containing fonts, video and text files, system updaters, freeware and shareware and demo versions of commercial software. Products were included for both Macintosh and Windows PC.

CD-ROM Today was the highest-selling review magazine for both Macintosh and PC users in 1996.[1] In 1996, after four seasonal and twenty-five numbered issues, the magazine was discontinued, with two newer publications replacing it: MacAddict for Macintosh users, and boot for Windows users.[1] Both magazines were first issued in August 1996[2] and have since been renamed MacLife and Maximum PC, respectively.

Editions It can be confusing as there was once two separate companies producing the same named magazine, the other was in the UK which was owned by Future Publishing in Bath. Both the content of magazine and CD-ROM were different. (this requires verification)
