I've got a number of i-openers on order too. I let you know how it goes once
I get them.

Two quick notes... I am looking into finding one of those i-opener sets and
doing the hack to get it to work.  I will keep all posted and would love to
hear from anyone else trying.  Second, for those who have tried to access
their CDJ over the web (from work, etc.) using their own servers and
what-not, you really should check out mp3.com's free my.mp3 service.  It is
a pain to set up (you have to insert every one of your discs into your
cd-rom for one minute, but the results are great; an easy to navigate
listing of your cds with playlist support and instant streaming (low quality
work super on a 56K and I can't wait for my DSL to go to high quality)
without having to make Mp3s of all your disks.  They have already done so
with 40,000 or so popular ones but you can only access them if you prove you
have a copy yourself. Of course they are being sued by the cd manufacturers
but for now I am going to use it.  I'm sure many of you knew about this way
before me, but some might not.  That's all.
