Disclaimer: I haven't tried this!

But...

If your server is linux-based or *BSD-based, then FUSE [1] might come
to your rescue. There's a FUSE-based filesystem called CDDFS [2] which
allows the audio CD to be 'mounted', and the tracks appear as WAV
files.

So you could just select an empty directory in your music library
folder as the mountpoint.

This would (of course) only be a starting point, as it raises more
questions than it answers:

- slimserver would index the virtual WAVs into its database - you
probably wouldn't want that
- no track metadata, and titles would probably be something
non-descriptive like "track001.wav"
