Chapter 4: Sharing Your CDs How you write your data to CD and the type of CDs that you use will determine who else can read the data from your discs. This chapter briefly explains some of the options you have in creating CDs that can be shared with others using different computer and CD setups. Varying Formats CD technology has progressed rapidly over the last few years from CDROM to writable CD, and on to the technology you now own in your rewritable CD-Writer Plus.
4-2 Sharing CDs across Different Formats Can I share a CD-RW disc? Yes. You can share a CD-RW disc directly with someone owning another CD-RW drive or with someone that has a MultiRead CD-ROM drive and UDF reader software. MultiRead CD-ROM drives are a recent innovation to CD-ROM technology, so while not all CD-ROMs are MultiRead, they are available to users world wide. How do I know if a CD-ROM is MultiRead? Look for the MultiRead certification logo on the CD-ROM’s packaging or users guide.
Sharing CDs across Different Formats 4-3 Using CD-R Discs When should I use CD-R discs? The data you put on a CD-R can’t be erased. Use CD-R discs: ■ When you want to protect your data so that it cannot be erased ■ If you want to share your CD with users that have standard CD-ROM drives ■ For audio CDs Can I automatically share a CD-R with anyone? Not necessarily. The software application you use will determine with whom you can easily share the CD.
