[comp.unix.aix] CD's on the 6000

marcc@yoyodyne.ncsa.uiuc.edu (Marc Cooper) (02/23/91)

This is a bit of a strange question, but...

How good are the CD roms on the 6000 as audio players?  I mean, I know they 
work as such with appropriate software, but how do they compare, with, say,
a reasonable low end CD player I might by at a stereo store?  Do they have 4x 
sampling?  How sensitive are they to scratches etc?  I've had CD's that 
would skip so as to be unlistenable on a cheap portable which played fine
in a more expensive home unit.  

Any toughts or comments?
