For CD's why not just burn them all t  hard disk as MP3 and play from
there.
That is what I have done and can now browse and control the 'jukebox' from
any web enabled device in the house. Current favourite is a wireless ePOD.
The added advantage is that devices such as the DDAR (or PCs, iPAQs etc)
can
be used to play music 'locally' in any room via the LAN. My physical CDs
are
now just a backup and will soon be consigned to the loft. DVDs are a
different proposition at present, though with hard disks getting affordable
at 100Gb+ and the divx technology, it won't be long before I think about
putting those on the server too.

Regards

Graham
