Banshee seems unable to be used with external usb cd/dvd drives. This will certainly present some issue with netbook users who don't have internal cd/dvd drives

In this case I don't think so. To summarize from Lp bug I filed - 
The drive shows up fine in nautilus, has assigned /dev links, works fine and is recognized by all other players (vlc, amarok, rhythmbox

Banshee works fine with the internal drive(s)
Noting I filed this on behalf of several netbook users whose only option is to use an external drive and see the same thing

I could request add. info from them if needed.

I'm playing music from my external (Samsung SE-S084F) CD/DVD drive in Banshee right now, so it looks like the issue is a bit more complex than simply having no usb CD support in Banshee.

What is the make/model of CD drive that you're having problems with?  If you reported this on behalf of several other users, are they using a similar make and model?

Banshee does work perfectly with either the 2 internal on a desktop, or 1 internal on a laptop

I can attempt to get hardware info from other users who have reported this though they may not respond.
Otherwise this can maybe just sit 'as is', if it's a widespread issue then I'm sure there will be more reports as the user base increases, if there aren't than likely just a corner case hardware issue

Same here, with Banshee 2.0, Ubuntu 11.04 and external asus cd/dvd (seen by OS, though it's had issues too where sound-juicer would not see it, but would after a reboot - so maybe this is an OS thing affecting Banshee too).

Banshee is not under active development anymore and had its last code changes more than three years ago. Its codebase has been archived.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project
to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is being shut down) if anyone takes the
responsibility for active development again.
See https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/Infrastructure/issues/264 for more info.
