I believe that Joliet is supported. Definitely is on Mac OS X - I don't 
run Mac OS 9 though. I seem to remember quite happily reading Joliet 
disks years ago on Mac OS 8 when I used a Mac to create a dual mode 
Joliet/HFS disk for an ISP.

As for MP3 player - can he not use iTunes? It's available for Mac OS 9 
still.

If you want to get him using linux try www.yellowdoglinux.com - I think 
they have ISOs for download.
