On autostart

"Many users disable the autorun feature, since it is a potential (but rarely used) vector for computer viruses and spyware"

A bigger thing is that cd's 1) Take several seconds to spin up (at least some players only increase reading/spin speed when a lot of data is needed (like not when just reading the directory/file info)) 2) Make a load of noise, which was related to #1, yeah... and at least on windows 3) freezes the system while performing #1. Oh yeah, another: the autostart feature can launch some pretty annoying programs too, adding even more time you have to wait to do anything with the cd.
