CD-R vs CD-RW

[slofox]

Why is it that if I record an audio CD to a CD-R disc it plays fine (on CD players, I'm talking here) but if I use a CD-RW disc, many players won't play it?

Just wondering...

Those re writeable cd's are shit for music, mostly. I have heaps that play fine on some stereos and dont play on others. Just a big con to get our money, tis the jews.

because your winblows probably doesn't finalise the cd as a iso9660 fs, being that it expects more to be written later.

Depends on the player. I believe most modern stuff like hi-fi systems will play CD-RW alright, but often older cars might have issues etc.

The fucken disc won't play because the god damned record player doesn't know where to put the needle to get music.

You have to tell it you won't writing no more banjo playing to the disc or it does not know it is a playable disc because it is still waiting for you as a writable disc.

Shit that was made this century can work that shit out for its self. The magic is not strong enough in the older shit.

To the best of my understanding taking a backup of existing material, or copying individual songs from one medium to another for personal consumption such as a CD "mix tape" is not illegal.

Failing to destroy backups you no longer own an original copy of is a different matter. Having both copies available for consumption is also another.

IIRC the people who have been prosecuted for writing CD's got done because they profited from them.
