The problem reading say SUN CDs in DEC readers on a VMS machine is not
the format of the blocks on the CD but the format of the data in blocks.

If you have the ISO CD format drivers and the CD is in ISO format
you should be able to read it anywhere.   A product engineer mentioned 
to me that with the INFOserver based cd readers (which just serve blocks)
and a reference port (Generic UNIX port).  YOu should be able to 
read a SUN internal format CD once you install the necessary code.
