neither does mine. :)

cd's dont have a mountable filesystem on them. (nor any kind of
filesystem). they have raw data, so-to-speak.

if you want to use them as files, you need to 'rip' the cd.

type:

apt-cache search rip cd | grep rip

at a prompt to see some tools. i use grip. a majority of the users on
list probably encode with ogg vorbis. i suggest that too. :)

anyhow,
