The Apple CD150 can be directly connected to the NeXT with no problem. For  
the past few months I have had one connected to my '040 cube (had to buy  
the NeXT SCSI 2 to SCSI 1 connector) and have used it to read several NeXT  
demo software discs and upgrade to NS3.0. As for reading NeXT discs on a  
CD-ROM connected to a Mac... I doubt you are going to get anywhere with  
that.
