CD-RW

When you use a CD-RW you can always over write and save new files on it. If you use a CD-R, you have to save it on there and lock it. Its pretty much a one time use In terms of re-saving new files.

CD-RW.

But to my knowledge CD-R can also hold information.

CD-RW.  You can find them at Wal-Mart, K-Mart, etc.  They are usually white or pink and stored in circular containers, usually found (I would guess) in the electronics section.

Depends usually. With a CD-r with the right software you can have multi sessions where you can ad more information after you've already burnt some. The disadvantage of this of course is you can't delete the data thats already on there.

A rw you can act a bit like a harddrive :P
