    Hi I'd like to find out if there is a limit to the amount of times you can keep adding\removing data from these CD-RW -
    I've added programs to a CD-RW disc that I'm currently burning at least 15 times, is there a point where it stops or is it like a floppy disc.... thanks in advance for any replies

    In order to add more files on the same disc you 'add' one session. This wastes about 30 MB of space in the disk. Once the disk is almost full, the burner will warn you before the burning begins.

    And about removing data: some CD-RW can be deleted and re-written a thousand times, more or less, than the photosensible layer starts breaking...
