If it was the CD I shouldn't be able to play it (should I?)? If it 
were the drive I don't see why it functions as a normal CD-ROM drive. 
Is there something I'm missing? 

I've just tried a little experiment - I popped the CD into the drive 
and plugged a set of headphones in the front. I'm now happily 
listening to Cab Calloway :-)

BTW, the drive is a Momitsu CDM-T631.
