Right, the ridge is there wether or not the disc is used or not.
Usually like i said yesterday, the side you want to record on is facing
straight up. so when you take a cd off the spindle or take it out of the
jewel case if that's how they're package, do not turn the disc over to the
other side. Just put your disc in the drive, prepare your cd to burn and
just use the default setting.
You'll be jusst fine.
As far as some cd's having ridges, I suppose it all depends on the brand of
cd itself. But like I said, burning the disc doesn't cause any actual
physical change to the outside of the disc. So don't let the term burning
trip you up. The burning process does change the cd because obviously it
has to add data to it but you'd never be able to tel just by feeling
it. The only way to know if a disc has been burned or not is to actually
place it in the drive and check it out for yourself, or in the case of a cd
you know is blank, then you know.

The ridge has been there and remains whether the disk has been used or
not. I think the reference to "new" was directed at how a cd sits in a
jewel case. An unopened or unused cd sits in the jewel case on a small
spindle with the "business" side or ridged side down.

I guess you don't see why I asked? The man said new CDs have this
ridge.
if you think that's a silly question, fine. But it still doesn't make
sense
to me. If it does to you, then explain why a blank CD I'm just taking
out
of its pack should have a ridge, but one that I've already used would
not
have a ridge, because it isn't new any more? Or does "new" bmean
manufactured after a certain date, when the ridge was addedas an
industry
standard? Or..?honestly. I'm just asking for clarification so I can
understand this feature and make use of it as a tactile guide.

A new cd is one that's never been used. that's usually how it goes?
