It's not "mounted." "Mounting" has a specific meaning, that refers to putting a file system on your file tree. This isn't happening, and can't happen - as there's no file system on an audio disc. And there are no WAV files on a CD. What you're seeing is an interface that "pretends." It's giving you an interface in your file browser that lets you pick a track on a disc, then do something with that track, depending on what features are built into your browser. Behind the scenes, if you double-click on a track, an audio player application is told to play that track. Or, if you drag the track somewhere, an audio-ripper is told to rip that track to a file. All of this is done through a handler that makes it look like you're directly dealing with files on some disc, but it's not. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
