What version of Media Player?

In MP9, go to Tools > Options > File Types and uncheck Music CD Playback

Try this..
Right click on CD Drive in My Computer
Go to Properties
Go to AutoPlay
Select Music CD from the drop down menu
Click the radio button for "select an option to perform"
Select Take no Action.
Apply.
Ok.

Which, for the record, only applies in Windows XP.
