As far as I remember the libcdaudio.so library/plugin also supports Digital
Audio Extraction (if your drive supports DAE, that is).
Using xmms/libaudiocd.so it should be possible to play CD's without the
audio cable.
I think that I actually did that once, but I can't verify this, as all my
current systems are fitted with the audio cable.
