How do you get at the files in an "enhanced" cd?

I bought the new Godsmack and the new Marylin Manson CD's today, and I cannot get Winamp to "see" either one of them?

Wndblows just shows the name of the cd in the drive, but when I click on it, it just shows a data folder containing quicktime files!

WTF is that? Am I not going to be able to put just the songs on the hard drive? Anyone else have these new cd's?

Enhanced CD's are supposed to have extra content on them besides the songs. When you put the CD in your computer, it should autorun and a menu should pop up. On the menu, you can choose to watch video clips or some of the other options.

I suppose you'd need to have some software that would force the music session to be the active session, rather than the data session.

On most CD's you can select the music you want to play. Winamp allows you to drag and drop songs using explorer...but both cd's, when you choose "play" from the menu, force open the windows cd player...which really sucks. Yes, I have Winamp as my default player for all sound file types.
