Let's discuss reading writable CDs

Perhaps we can make an article out of this subject:

Have you ever written data to a CD R/W on one machine, then been unable to see that data (or program) on another machine?

It happened to me recently. The CD was initialized on my Media Center machine, taken to my customer's machine where revisions were written to it, brought home and put into my development machine. I can see the data written by the first machine, but not the new data. I had no clue that there was new data on it. Until... I stuck it into a Media Center machine, and there was the data.

i think it is do to multi-sessioning a disk. Since u want to leave the disk open to allow other items to be written to it, it doesn't close the disk...some computer's won't/can't read unclosed disk....but they can burn to them (wierd).

And if u use two different burning applications sometimes the sessions don't link correctly causing parts not to be recognized.
