One small point of clarification:
(see output of `apt-cache show xmms-cdread', above.)
"This allows XMMS to use an audio CD for visualization, and also lets
you play an audio cd from a drive which does not have an audio cd cable
connected."
Just so you know, I have xmms playing CDs from a CD-ROM without an audio
cable connected to the sound card, so I can say for sure that it works
as advertised. :-)
