- What are the differences between a CD player and a CD-ROM
- device? Putting the SCSI interface and controller mechanisms
- aside, is the reading done in a similar fashion?
- BIG DUMB QUESTION: How much work would be involved in trying to
- "convert" a CD player to a CD-ROM? Probably very difficult if not
- next to impossible.
