OK,

'lsof | grep /mnt' returns:
fam         801 goran   37r   DIR       22,0     2048  411422720
/mnt/cdrom
But I suppose I need this one. Don't I?

Well, from the man page it sounds to me like 'fam' is some kind of 
monitor program to check for file changes. Probably it has been startet 
by mozilla when you where visiting the cd.
I think it should be save to kill the process which locks the cd.
Anyhow it would be nice if someone could jump in to enlighten us in the 
behaviour of fam (in the standard settings fam should release the file 
after 5 sec. if no client is using it, so there must be some program 
which still has a connection open)?

It happens from time to time, that I mount the CD, use it, close all
related  programs and when trying to unmoun tit returns that the device
is busy.
     

try 'lsof' to find out which program has files open on the cd.
