That'll be impossible!

There is no software CD burning utilities or support for DVDs on Apple II.

I often have considered getting a CD-ROM drive for my Apple IIGS, but the
main limitation is the lack of CD software for it which are extremely rare.

Your best bet is to get the official Apple computer, "Apple II High-Speed
Controller" card for it, this will easily work with SCSI devices on either
Apple IIe or IIGS. Such a card usually fetch high prices on E-Bay, as they
are highly sought after. The software driver can be downloaded from Apple's
official website.
