Data CD-ROMs have to be mounted before you access the files stored in a
track of the CD-ROM.  So, you'd have to use something like this to
access the mp3 files in a data CD-ROM:

	# mount_cd9660 -o ro /dev/acd0 /cdrom

Audio CD-ROMs can be controlled with cdcontrol(1):

	# cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 play 1

More details about data and audio CD-ROMs are described in the Handbook,
so you really *have* to look at the relevant section:
