Besides VLC:
mplayer -cdrom-device /dev/cdrom cdda://
Totem -> Movie -> Play Disc
cdplay -d /dev/cdrom (When the cdtools package installed. This is one
of the most low-level ways to play a cd)
CD rippers:
Sound Juicier
k3b
audex
abcde
cdparanoia
Also, it you mount the cd (which Linux can do, even with an audio cd),
use "file" on one of the files
# file /media/cdrom/
If that kind of stuff isn't working all I could think is that it has
some kind of weird DRM on it (which normal Audio CDs do not support).
Do you know if it plays in a cd player (not a computer)? And where is
this Windows program "Arcade" from? I cannot find it anywhere...
