So you return -EIO?

[I never seen cdparanoia], but:
nice thing with interfaces like this is that they are intuitive.
Can you do
ESPEAKER=Elf splay -d - /mnt/cdrom/*.wav | esdcat
with cdparanoia? Proposed filesystem (better implelmented with nfs
then coda; coda can't do streaming. See my other mail for code) is
*very* nice user interface
can do streaming
Someone even implemented it into kernel, it was called audiofs and did
not work for me.

I did that for recording on magnetophone. It was horrible.
