Besides VLC: mplayer -cdrom-device /dev/cdrom cdda:// Totem -> Movie -> Play Disc cdplay -d /dev/cdrom (When the cdtools package installed. This is one of the most low-level ways to play a cd) CD rippers: Sound Juicier k3b audex abcde cdparanoia Also, it you mount the cd (which Linux can do, even with an audio cd), use "file" on one of the files # file /media/cdrom/ If that kind of stuff isn't working all I could think is that it has some kind of weird DRM on it (which normal Audio CDs do not support). Do you know if it plays in a cd player (not a computer)? And where is this Windows program "Arcade" from? I cannot find it anywhere...
