New Music CDs and Linux?

[Michael Costolo]

This weekend I purchased two music CDs.  I tried to listen to each of them in my
Linux box at home without success.  I attempted to open the cd by clicking the
desktop icon but got errors like "you do not have permission to enter /mnt/cdrom." 
I then attempted to mount the cd from the command line interface which returned no
error, but any attempt to cd there gave me an IO error.  I forget the exact message
it gave me but I can retry it tonight if anyone deems it necessary.  (I can
open/read data cds just fine however.)

Inspection of the CDs themselves revealed a suspicious looking first track making me
think that perhaps they were the copy-protected CDs that you could use a black
marker on to un-protect.  However, I then dropped them in my Dell Inspiron 5000
(Win2K) at work.  In this computer, they appear to be normal audio CDs.  I can see
and listen to the tracks as one would expect.  

Does anyone have any insight as to what is happening?

Thanks,

-Mike-
