Most DVD players will play CDs of all type depending on the content. CD-Rs can normally be handled without a problem. There are restrictions on the content that the DVD player can handle. It varies from one model to another but many can play audio content (CD format or MP3), pictures and some video formats. The only way to confirm the capabilities is to refer to the manual for each model. Some older DVD players will not play CD-Rs that use phthalocyanine (light green) dye. They will however play discs that use cyanine (teal) or azo (blue) dyes. If in doubt, use Taiyo Yuden discs which always use cyanine (teal) dye.

All MacBook models came with CD/DVD players (and or burners) so you should be able to play any DVD-Rom.If you go to the Apple Menu in the upper left corner and select About this Mac/ More Info... Then select Disk Burning it should list your CD/DVD player/burner and all the categories it can burn/play back. If it doesn't show then look under ATA and it should show up as just a player.
