I don't think that's a good idea.  The sound-juicer maintainer has  
always said that at no point does he want to add any significant CD  
playing features; the very basic playback stuff that's there now was  
pretty much added under duresse.  So it will never really be much  
good as a player.

I still think Totem is our best bet as a CD player for now, assuming  
it actually plays CDs on Solaris (it works fine on Linux).

Cheeri,
