That depends on what you want it for. Some DVD players have the ability to play CDs as well, but most, other than portable players, do not have their own sound or video output devices (i.e. a screen and speakers). CD players cannot play DVDs at all, but most come as part of a tape/radio/CD player combo, hence can play CDs independently.

If possible, try to find a portable DVD player. These can play both on their own and can be attached to stereos or other televisions if so desired, and fill the requirements of each well.

Can a CD play in a DVD player?

it depends. are you using a DVD/ CD player? or are you using just a plain CD player? if ur using the CD player, it wont work because it doesn't have a screen. if your using a DVD/ CD player, it will work just fine. A DVD will not play in a CD-only player -- even a CD-ROM drive that does not have DVD hardware built in. The stepper motors and lenses for a DVD-ROM drive are far more precise than a CD drive, and the CD drive cannot physically read the tiny information on the DVD surface.
