IS IT POSSIBLE TO READ GD-ROMS USING A DVD-READER?

[faragao]

hello guys, sorry about my english (I´m brazilian) and sorry again if I sound too much stupid, but I´m afraid to say I´m a totally newbie. Forgive me if it hurts you to read what could be such a boring and idiot question, but I haven´t found, although I have already searched the forum, the answer for this question: is it possible to read gd-roms using a dvd-reader? I don´t have any gd-rom to make a test, but I have seen some tutorials about how to rip games using a cable which connects the dreamcast to the pc, downsampling the files to fit in a 650mgs cd-r, and so... but I don´t own one of this cable (and I don´t think it´s easy - maybe it´s impossible - to find one here in Brazil) so I wanted to know if a commom dvd-reader (not burner, only reader) could do that, since they read dvds (which have a much higher density than gd-roms)... any help would be appreciate... tks in advance.
