I used to buy a bit costlier re-writable discs, just so as to burn them again and againπŸ˜„ used to feel like a hacker doing so🀣 I think the usual one used to come in Rs 10-15, and the re-writable ones used to cost Rs 30-40.

Also very interesting to know (and talk about) was the difference between CDs and DVDs. You could burn CDs only once with whatever data that you want that may be 8kb on 600mb CD or the full space whereas in DVD you could incrementally fill up the space.

Didn't know this as my system had only cd support

For that you need to burn it in multi session mode.
