But I'm poor.

If you're talking about a DVD-ROM drive, as long as it's not too old, it should read (and only read, not write) CD-R's or CD-RW's. If you're talking about a DVD player, it'll read MP3 CD-R's/CD-RW's or Video-CD's.

Not old DVD players. I have the same problem. Sucks too because the sound system it's hooked up to is sweet.

Ahh yeah, the old DVD players won't read anything but DVD's...

It sucks because, as you said, a lot of people with home theaters and stuff can't take full advantage of them...

If you aren't already, use this site.
