can used music CD, game or DVD carry a virus if they have been in the infected computers before that I bought?

original title: A Couple security issues

I have a few questions of security on various things.  First may musical CD used, game cds or dvds carry a virus if they have been in the infected computers before that I bought? (these are used CD and DVD is NOT burned CDs and DVDs)  Second, a cd or dvd player can catch a virus inside? (not a cd rom or dvd rom, a cd or a dvd player not connected to the computer)

Thanks in advance.

Yes.

You ask about equipment. No, the viruses infect software,
material.
