Use blank CD-Rs to record music or permanently store data files. After creating
a CD-R, you cannot write to that CD-R again (see the Sonic documentation for
more information). Use a blank CD-RW if you plan to erase, rewrite, or update
information on that disc later.
Blank DVD+/-R or BD-R media can be used to permanently store large amounts
of information. After you create a DVD+/-R or BD-R, you may not be able to
write to that disc again if the disc is finalized or closed during the final stage of
the disc creation process. Use blank DVD+/-RW or BD-RE media if you plan to
erase, rewrite, or update information on that disc later.
