Most cd systems have a tiny round hole at the front - check if yours does. If it has one, do the following.
Get an ordinary paper clip and uncurl about 1.5 inches
Push the straight end into the hole - you should feel 'something give' which is the gears that control the eject mechanism.
Keep pushing till it opens.

Thanks Mosaic but, no holes in front of CD player :-( tried paper clip inside slot but nothing to say I won't just rag the insides out!!
Most home CD/DVD drives have a release .. yes .. but not car or home players. Remove the unit and strip to remove the disc. That is going to be the only way I think.
Try using a pair of scissors. open them slightly and try to close them so that they are on each side of the cd. Then press eject and try to pull it out.
