Ok, I appreciate that.

Obviously, this needs some serious thought put into it to develop a proper
solution as there are thousands of different types of CDROM out there. For the
time being, it would be nice if the new Ubuntu release set DMA on some of the
most popular types of CDROM drive out there. You have the Ubuntu hardware
database now, what are the top ten CDROM drives out there?

For reference, my CDROM is a "TOSHIBA CD/DVDW SD-R5372" and DMA works on there.
 My work machine is a "HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4481B" and DMA works on there as well.
