The claim comes from the fact that Linux has a "pass-through" mechanism
that can make ATAPI devices look like SCSI. If you're not using Linux,
you're SOL, though, AFAIK. Wormcontrol(8) (as found in
/usr/share/examples/worm) is good for burning data CDs, but I've had
some problems burning audio CDs with it. Might just be my drive though;
maybe you'll have better luck.
HTH,
