It is a third-party module to be installed with the kernel (not a patch, just an extra module) and allows you to deal with individual sessions of a multi-session CD, as well as see audio tracks as individual WAV files (actually, I believe the tracks are still CDR format, and the wrong extension is applied - you should be able to convert them to WAV with sox.) With the VFS nature of Linux, there should be no reason why you shouldn't be able to mount an ISO image before burning and double-check the tracks. If you want to go in the other direction and play the ISO image with a CD playing program, I would suspect that would involve finding one that allows you to specify the input source/device, and saying the ISO file instead of /dev/cdrom. -- Mark L.
