Bash: How to read label of cd/dvd?

Problem

I want to read the label/volume of the cd? How can this be done?

Solution

sudo isoinfo -d dev=0,1,0 | sed -rn 's/^Volume id: (.*)$/\1/ p'

 isoinfo is a utility to perform directory like listings of iso9660 images.

 OPTIONS

       -d     Print information from the primary volume  descriptor  (PVD)  of
              the  iso9660  image. This includes information about Rock Ridge,
              Joliet extensions and Eltorito boot information if present.
