Burning CDs

[d1rtyreds]

Okay, don't laugh. I keep hearing people say that you can burn CD's that already have info on them - like those AOL or MSN CD's you get in the mail and don't use. Is that true? If so, how do you copy over them?

Only certain types of disks -- so-called CD-RW or rewriteable CDs. You of course need a burner that can handle these kind of disks. They are also a bad idea for using as audio CDs because only the most modern CD players will recognize them. I doubt very much that those freebies from AOL etc. are CD-RW disks, since they would cost more than plain CD-Rs would.

Personally I never use them since I have good regular CD-R disks that cost about a quarter apiece...

No, you can not re-record over the sample CD's sent out to you.

AlChuck told it to you like it really is....

But, like he said, you can purchase blank CD's for an inexpensive amount.

Plus, I get 200 CD's for $12.00, that's $.06 per CD.
