You can use cdrdao with the disk-info command. Make sure the CD is not mounted before you run it, or you will get an error. For example:

Code:

$ cdrdao disk-info --device /dev/cdrom

You'll quite a bit of version and author cruft and then:

Code:

CD-RW                : no
Total Capacity       : n/a
CD-R medium          : n/a
Recording Speed      : n/a
CD-R empty           : no
Toc Type             : CD-DA or CD-ROM
Sessions             : 2
Last Track           : 11
Appendable           : no
