Actually, as I already pointed out, I'm not at all happy with blacklisting
stuff. What sounds more sane to me (and this is only me) would be what sr.c
does: assume that per se the drive can play audio and try to play it. But how
many drives are there that cannot play audio, aka, would it be a safe assumption
to say that their number is so diminishingly small that it would be better to
announce that a drive can play audio by default and fail graciously in the
_very_ seldom case it actually cannot ...
