You start up an audio CD using the CD Remote desk accessory.  Once you
start playing a CD, it plays without further intervention from the
Mac.  You can close the desk accessory.  When you get to the end of the
CD, the default behavior is to loop back to the beginning.  You can
change that behavior using the CD Remote desk accessory.

Think of the CD Remote desk accessory as everything that comes with a
high-end audio CD remote control.

Multifinder is not relevant to playing an audio CD.  The desk accessory
is what controls audio CD play. (Or program control...)
