It's hardware - you can touch it.
A CD is neither hardware, nor software. A CD is media. A CD-ROM Drive is hardware.

Yes. CD-RW and DVD drives can be either internal or external hardware devices.
The difference between hardware and software is that hardware is something physical. It is something you can touch. For example, a CD and its CD-ROM drive is hardware, but the music that is recorded on it is the software.
a computer file is software because it is part of a program and not a device (hardware) i.e CD ROM drive,hard drive
Depends. There are hardware which are input and hardware that are output. eg:Input hardware:ScannerMicrophoneCD player (Not CD-RW)Output hardware:SpeakersPrinterMonitor
To prevent software privacy you can protect your program with a CD key or a hardware key. This will require people to own the CD and box of the product, only available in stores.
A VDU is hardware.
No. The DVD has more bits-per-inch than the CD reader hardware can handle.
The pieces software that runs the hardware in your computer are called Drivers. These either come built in to your Operating System, or they come from another source such as the Internet or an Install CD/DVD.
CD/DVD-rom drive, USB Flash drive. ect
The Sims is a game and thus it is a program. That makes it software. It is not a computer part.The key thing to keep in mind is that hardware is the physical parts of the computer, while software is invisible. If you want to be technical, a CD or DVD is really hardware. The information that is stored on it is the software. Just like a cassette tape, LP, or 8-track is not music, but merely the container for the music, a diskette, CD, DVD, or memory stick is not a program, but merely a container for programs.Now if you mean a SIMM (single inline memory module), that is hardware.
