Well, if a CDRW isn't sealed the only thing in the whole world
that can read it is the CD-RW drive that wrote it. You use a
Blanking instruction to clear it for use again. Of course if it
is a CD-R, the multisession is a better approach than with CDRW.
And, yes, you can stay with iso9660. linux does not treat a
CD-RW like a slow hard disk.
