Are you sure about this, John?  I have always understood that fixating closed
the disk.

Unless I'm mistaken John is referring to "multi-session" writing. That means that essentially you can write to the cd again later, b/c it hasn't been completely finalized. Takes some finagling but you can leave part of the cd "open" & parts closed. This requires, if i'm not mistaken, quite a bit of knowledge in teh use of NERO or some other burning program. Nero has some nifty tricks to do this but unless you are well versed in how to do so, I suggest leaving it be & just close the whole CD session (Finalize it).

Audio, ofc, is different again. I won't even try to explain that stuff as I don't understand it myself.
