Are you able to use any other discs in the drive, try a few audio CD's and DVD's and see if it spits them out also or works fine.
If it spits it out then its the drive, if it reads them and plays those fine then it could be the OS disc.
Oh and another note, are you using a retail disc or just trying to install a copy that came with another machine or is this the full retail version?

I tried other dvds and cds and is doing the same thing.. doesn't reads them and ejects them. The OS DVD is new... just opened the box

Well then like I said before its the drive, I would definitely want to consider having Apple take a look at it since you mentioned its new, just stick Snow off to the side for now and install when you have a fully functional drive.
