Yes. The CD 150 used a proprietary command set to control the audio
functions. The CD Remote NDA sends these commands. However, the
CD 300 uses the newer, standardized SCSI-2 audio commands, so the NDA
won't work with it. If someone wrote the software for it, the 300
could play audio, read audio directly as data, and do other neat things.
