To watch DVDs? No, you don't need the cable for that... you'll still
need it to listen to audio CDs the "traditional" way though. You could
listen to audio CDs without the cable by doing something like piping
cdparanoia output to audioplay. (Has anyone made a CD player app that
plays using digital audio extraction, rather than the standard play CD
commands? I don't know of any, but I haven't looked at all).
