Indeed.

Just play in window mode. -w option in the shortcut. No access to videos,
so no access to CD in the middle of the action. The CD is only accessed
when you are in channels and stops spinning rapidly once in game.
Downsize is :
- you need to turn your screen brighter on LCD
- if you move your mouse too fast and clic outside of window, it lowers
and of course, if you move your mouse frantically in general it's in times
of trouble ;-)
