Why do CDs reflect rainbow colors?
Like water drops in falling rain, the CD separates white light into all the colors that make it up. The colors you see reflecting from a CD are interference colors, like the shifting colors you see on a soap bubble or an oil slick.

Sometimes the waves add together, making certain colors brighter, and sometimes they cancel each other, taking certain colors away.
