CD-R formats:

In spite of the slow but steady inroads being made by DVD, the CD-ROM is by far the most popular computer data storage medium. Due to the decreasing prices of both CD-R disks and CD-R writers, more and more computer users are ‘burning’ their own CDs. Modern CD writers offer a wealth of options, so it makes sense to describe the most important formats and specifications for CD-R and CD-RW.
