Disklavier

Michael,
Don't forget that if Yamaha does not and will not provide what you 
need in the way of an add-on CD player, there are other companies 
that may. 

Have you looked at any possible options from either:
PianoDisc http://www.pianodisc.com/products/
or
Pianomation http://www.qrsmusic.com/pianomation.asp
