141169 2003-05-03 23:06:00 What ever burning programme you are using it will have an option to close the CD, so it is playable on an ordinary stereo system. Make sure the option to close CD is not ticked. Bill P (1660)
141170 2003-05-03 23:08:00 If data (including music) is burnt to a CD-R disc and the session is "closed" then no more data can be added to that CD.

If the CD was burnt in multiple session format then you can add more data to it in further sessions, but with music you will probably only be able to play the last recorded session on a CD player. For that reason music CDs are better burnt to a CD in one session and it is, of course, more economical to cram as much as you can onto the CD in that session.

141171 2003-05-03 23:31:00 What if burning program you are using will have an option for closing or finalising a CD. This means it can be played on another form of CD player, eg walkman stereo. Just make sure you do not tick this option until CD is full. Bill P (1660)
