What I also do know about burning audio CD's, is my home stereo for example, won't even play a properly burned audio CD if the burned CD is a CD-RW disk. I found that out when I first got a CD burning drive a few years ago, and that was my first CD I burned.
I've had similar issues with older stereos. The newer ones usually don't have problems so long as the disc is properly closed during burning.
Case in point, the car radios my folks have will only play a few burned CD-R's (no RW's).
humm, I am using a CD-RW disk, but I do have some CD-Rs also, is that what I need to use?
