I mistakenly sent my reply privately to Jim, but Shawn covered everything I
wanted to say.
What some of us are wondering is why, if Jim has a burner in which he hopes
to alter the type byte of the CDR, he needs to change the type byte at all.
He could just burn the audio tracks in the same device. Maybe he's trying to
prepare discs for someone else's use on a consumer-grade CD recorder or for
his own use in a place where he'll have a recorder available but no burner
(perhaps no computer)?
The cost difference between data blanks and music blanks has shrunk consider-
ably, but it's still nonzero, and data discs are easier to find than music
discs (particularly if you want something a little bit out of the majority,
such as rewritables; until recently eighty- minute write-once music blanks
were not so easy to find as they are now, and rewritable music blanks are
still uncommon, even in seventy-four-minute lengths).
