This is not possible with any current CD-ROM products for any type of
computer system.  The closest you can come is to plug a cable from the
headphone output of the CD-ROM drive into the input of an audio digitizer
on your system of choice.

CD-ROM drives need both hardware and firmware modifications to read audio
data from audio CD's (called CD-DA) across the SCSI bus.  In other words
the manufacturers have to produce new products.

What out for copyrights on the CD's.
