In my experience, using DVD drives to read CD's and do other standard CD-ROM drive stuff is a good idea. DVD drives seem to be better built and fail less. That is just my experience. Any ATAPI DVD drive should work fine in FreeBSD. Playing DVD movies is a diffrent story. Check on the -multimedia mailing list for latest info.
