How do i get software that needs a dvd rom drive to work on my computer with no dvd rom drive?

I got some music software and it needs a dvd rom drive which is one thing i don't have. I was just wondering if there is anything i can download or something that is not expensive like buy a dvd rom drive. Thanks for your help!

there is no software that will emulate a DVD ROM drive.....you will need to get a DVD ROM drive....preferably a cdrw/dvd combo drive as this will give you more functionality, but of course you could go to the latest and get a dvd burner which will not only read all types but burn all types of discs. The cost is anywhere from 10 bucks to 100 depending on model and type you get. if its a laptop drive its going to cost more but functions the same...if its a PC then its easier to install and costs less....there are also external drives that hookup via usb but it would be my guess that if all you have is a standard cdrom drive the computer probably won't support usb 2.0 and it would be pointless to get an external drive.
Reply:No, if the hardware installed on your computer does not read DVDs, and you said it was only a Cd-Rom? You'll have to buy one. :)
