From Mac Help, "Burning a CD or DVD"
"Mac OS X burns discs that can also be used on Windows computers and
other types of computers. The disc uses an HFS Plus/ISO 9660 hybrid
format with these file systems: HFS+, ISO-9660 with Rock Ridge, and
Joliet with Rock Ridge."
I also think there's a way to change file systems if you use Disk
Utility.
