Since upgrading to Catalina, when I load a original music CD in an external USB-connected Samsung CD/DVD drive, I get this message;
"The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer."

I don't think it can be a problem caused by the device or the disk because
  1. No problem with Movie DVD's,
  2. I never had any problems on previous releases of MacOS reading music CDs,
  3. I tried two different external CD/DVD devices with the same result,
  4. I can attach the drive to a different laptop runs Win 10 handles the music CD perfectly.

What's changed in Catalina and how can I fix it?

I’ve been having similar issues. I have to disconnect and reconnect the drive over and over before it’s stable. Not a problem before Catalina
