Whats The Difference Between CD-R and CD-RW?


Question Posted Saturday March 31 2007, 2:00 am

Is there any difference between CD-R/DVD-R and CD-RW/DVD-RW other then the RW's are rewriteable and the R's are permanent? I usually would get CD-R's to make CDs and DVD-R's for when i make DVDs. I was wondering if there would be any difference in the quality between R's and RW's. I would always think in the back of my head that if I use a RW then the quality would be poorer because its made to rewrite and then if i rewrite and the disc might be scratched a little then it wouldn't come out right. So I always would just stick to the R's.

Personally, i use CD-RW because it ends up cheaper because you can get a new CD every week or so withouit paying.

I dont find a difference in quality.
CD-R are cheap with good quality..
Normally you can bulk buy them too..
like in ASDA you can get 10 for 99p

CD-RW are good for if you dont know a band too well and want to try out some music without wasting a CD

Hope i helped a bit

Go with CD-Rs. They are cheaper and better quality.

liek you said the difference is cd-rw is rewrite able personally i would just go with cd-r's becuase the quality is better the only difference is when you burn a cd-rw the dont finalize the cd so it is less quality becuase it can be erased uts like tapes you can record something on tv on a tape but it isnt as good of quality as a tape you buy from the store i would suggest you use cd-r's
