This is a bug. I don't care if it's mounted. I don't care if it's use. When I press that button, it should come out. I understand that forcefully unmounting a file system is in general a bad idea. Data can be corrupted, be lost or disappear into thin air -- but not on a read-only mount of a read only CD. I shouldn't have to hold down the button. I shouldn't have to reboot my computer. Xine shouldn't lock up because I wanted my disc and neither should mplayer. They should exit gracefully and my disc should come out so that I can throw it on my desk full of other randon crap. I shouldn't have to fight my CD-drive. If I put in a scratched or otherwise damaged disc (unbeknownst to me) there should be some timeout period where it gives up and stops trying to mount it -- this makes things hang. It's annoying. Give me back my disc.
