Hi Diane, Yes it does. It can play: Audio CD & CD-R/CD-RW (audio data/MP3 files). -Anthony

No, I have it hooked up to speakers. I don't see why it wouldn't play the CD R Ws. I haven't, but I think it could.

I have an old Phillips CDR 775, in addition to my TASCAM 9000SL.These work fine on both of them. The CD-RWs are rewriteable; the CR-Rs are not, but they both work.No matter what kind you get (CR-R or CD-RW), make SURE they both say "Music" on them. (They are different than Data CDs.)

I just installed a program that I had downloaded from the internet on to my computer, and it installed properly. This was a (an) CD-R disk. So I would say that one can play CDs with this drive. By the way this program was burned from another CD drive.

No Kristi - CDRWs will only work in computers, and specialised CD Readers - they are unlikely to work in your car stereo even if you finalize them

According to the manual, this does NOT play any Mp3-based CDs. It only plays AUDIO CDs, either burned or original discs.

It does play CD's. May want to explore other players unless the price is unbeatable.

Yes on a computer. No if used in a CD recorder that is part of an audio system...in this case you will need "music CDR".

Yes. It will play CDs. Optical drives like this Samsung are ALL backward compatible to older disc formats. If it plays Bluray, it will play DVD and if it plays DVD, it will play CD.* *Because they still build all Bluray (blue laser) optical drives with DVD/CD (red lasers) as well

Yes it does. It plays CD's and DVD's. I've had mine for 4 to 5 months now and it's great!

No, it does not. Returning it now. Also purchased it just so it could play MP3 burned on a CD.

I don't know. I sent it back as soon as I found out the CD player didn't work.

If CD u burned is in mp3, reburn to wav on CD, if ur CD player doent play mp3, u need to burn as wav like other CD music CD's, make shure ur CD player can play CD-r's, older CD players don't reconize CD-r

I have a VW stock radio, and how mine works is if the CD drive is empty then it will default to AUX. If there is a CD in the drive, it will play the CD.

Yes it does have playback & it will play any cd. It will record on a blank cd (cd-r) & play it back. You can also record on blank re-writeable cd's (cd-rw), finalize them (finalizing them allows them to be played on most other cd players) & then later unfinalize them & erase the cd-rw to record again as a blank cd-rw. Very good recorder. Excellent for recording live guitar & vocals also.

This unit which only plays CD's does not. That feature is usually only available on SACD discs played back on an SACD player.
