I'm not speaking with authority here, and I really wish someone would, but I  
have tried using an Apple CD 150  with NeXTSTEP 3.0, and had lots of problems.   
There are no problems with normal disks like the NeXTSTEP 3.0 disk.  But  
CDPlayer.app doesn't work at all which makes me believe NeXT didn't really  
follow the standards for that since playing audio CDs on the CD 150 works fine  
on my Mac.
