Also the CDDA disk icon is usually related what CD filesystem you use
(AmiCDFS or CacheCDFS etc), it isn't a disk icon as such, more of a app
icon for whatever player you use. I have Opus but haven't setup a filetype
for CDDA, I tried but it didn't work and is, in any event, unneccessary.
What else do you want as actions for a CDDA filetype but loading the
player- leeching I guess, but you could use the nice SecondSpin for that.
All the best,
Quote carefully and read all ADMIN:README mails
