Hi,

I would like to know if there is such a device
as a CDROM jukebox - just like to music jukebox?
If there is, how does one access the various
files on the individual CDROM? If each CDROM
is matched to a drive (in the case of PC), then
we can only have 26 CDROM!

For the case of a CDROM changer (Pioneer), it 
is the case that each CDROM is matched to a drive
letter. What if we daisy-chain a number of such
changers? How do we access the files on a certain
CDROM on a certain changer?

Thanks for any information.
cheers.
