you can't (generally) "just mount" an audio CD.  you want a tool that
will "rip" audio from the disc to your hard disk.  investigate
"cdparanoia", at:

   http://www.xiph.org/paranoia/

note that there does exist an "audiofs", if i remember correctly; i'm
not sure what systems it runs on, however.  since it *can* be done in
user space, instead of in the kernel, it's probably better to do it
there.
