Absolutely. On that subject, does anyone know what was the reason for
including our own copy of the scsilib tarball, instead of buildling
against the popular cdrecord-devel version ? Is it patched ? I
understand we keep the pccts tarball because pccts is not widely
distributed, and we keep our own paranoia lib because it has custom
modifications. If the included scsilib is not patched, i would
recommend getting rid of it and building against an installed version.

Well with cdrdao i've never been able to burn reliably above 8x, and
the CPU usage gets very high. cdrecord burns reliably at 24x with no
cpu usage (proof that it's using DMA instead of PIO). Note that this
could simply be caused by our scsilib being old, i haven't tried with a
newer version. I'll investigate..

Good idea. We could use gstreamer, but fall back on libao if gstreamer
isn't available... (?)
