Simon Mackay asked,

| Does anyone know what the SCMS status is for audio CD-Rs that are burnt
| using a computer, rather than a standalone CD recorder.

That depends on the burning software.

| For example, if I ... burn a Red Book CD from the WAV files, how do these
| discs get treated -- whether the recording is a Penultimate, Unlimited or
| Final recording.

Adaptec Easy CD creator marks them penultimate.  It came with my Iomega CDRW
drive, so I haven't tried any other burning software.  I know they are penul-
timate because I copied them by digital transfer to MD without using a
stripper, and the transfer proceeded, but my JE520 identified the MD copies 
as SCMS-final.

| Also, is it possible to use a "For Consumer" CD-R which is used with a
| standalone CD recorder on a computer's CD burner for data or audio;

Audio, yes; data, I don't know.

| and whether these discs' "fingerprint" information can be used by CD-ROM
| drives to identify recordings for purposes such as title databases.

If you mean what I think you do, yes.
