Samba and NFS share file systems.  A Music CD does not have a file system on 
it.[1]

>In the event you need more specific features, there is aldo NBD:

NBD shares block devices.  Most CD rippers prefer (or require) the use of the 
character device in addition (or instead of) the block device.  The character 
device should allow more fine-grained control and also access to sub-channel 
data that the block device doesn't expose.[2]

ATAoE or iSCSI *might* be able to do the sharing you need but, most likely, 
they will be in the same category as NBD.

[1] Depends on what you consider a file system, I guess.  But, CDDA data is 
generally not presented by the OS as just another file system.
