[stuff deleted] A friend of mine has a Sony Carousel audio CD deck that holds 5(?) CDs. Does anybody make a multi-CD-ROM drive?

I didn't get a chance to talk to them about it, as the jerk running the booth was too busy arguing with some guy about MCA vs. AT bus, or something like that.... Pioneer is going under the name: "Pioneer Communications of America, Inc., Optical Memory Products Division" for this product. I'd like to know exactally how you tell the changer which disc to pull up in software (doesn't sound too difficult), and could/does it work in a network environment?
