Ah.. okay.  The drive was becoming ready and the read commands were
retried too fast.  The drive I tested on was fast enough to deliver the
data but yours wasn't.  Hmmm.... This is difficult.  This also poses
problems to live cd distros, I think.  We probably need to make sr wait
for device readiness.  Maybe it's best to put TUR waiting in read error
handling.  I'll think about it.

Thanks.
