Just picked up the issue of FAQT w/ the Christina Ricci disc in it. I got it at Tower, too. They had Ricci's Pieces CD but not the Warp 10 CDs. That pissed me off a bit. What a super store that place is! And REAL friendly service, too! Actually, it sucks donkey dick, but... I've only listened to a little of the CD. So far, the Cex track sounds pretty nice. Anyway, the reason I'm writing is to find out if anyone knows of a way to get around the limitations of a single-session CD-ROM drive. Ricci's Pieces has MP3s on it (from Qwerty, Colingib, et al) that I'd really like to hear but can't. Same kind of problem w/ Coltrane's The Ultimate Blue Train which has some pictures and shit that I can't access. If you're not aware, a single-session drive will read a CD/multimedia hybrid disc as simply an audio disc, thus not allowing enjoyment of the extra stuff. Can anyone help? Thanks, Jeff

Jeff, you can buy a good new cd-rom drive for about $50 .. i doubt you're that in the hole financially if you'd like a capable, relatively satisfying cd-rom .. other than that .. no clue if theres a back door .. -jason
