I just thought I'd throw my $.02 in to anyone who's interested.  A 
friend of mine had a PhotoCD so we threw it into my NeXT CD drive and 
it just showed up in the File Viewer!  Naturally there was no software
that could read the image files, but they were all there.  Anybody
know of software for the NeXT that can read the PhotoCD format?  

This disc was what's called a 'single-session' disc.  Apparently these
discs should be readable by most CD drives.  It's only the 'multi-
session' discs that need a new type of drive.  Don't flame me 
if I'm wrong, just kindly post a correction.  This is just my un-
educated understanding of how it all works!
