Reading CD-ROM info

Hi,

Just read thru the CD-Writing HowTo for Linux and it contained a section
about reading out information stored on cd-roms like title, creation-date
etc. Didn't look that hard, but not knowing C++ at all making a module
myself would take some time, even years. :-<

Does anybody know if there is a python-module working under linux ( I guess
a couple of API calls under Win32 should get the info too but that doesn't
help under linux ) that can extract the available information? If not, does
anybody want to look into the matter and at least say something about how
difficult it would be to implement a module such as this?

I need this information in a CD-Indexing-project.

Thomas
