I understand that if you use Windows Xp to copy files to a CD, the CD is
left open until it is full. If this is try, is there a way to close the
CD so it can't be written to again after data is copied to it ?
XP's built-in burning software will automatically close a disc after writing
an audio file/s. This is done in order to make such files compatible with
standalone players. Burning an audio file on a disc used for other data
should not compromise retrieval of that data.
A kludge worthy of a test. Alternatively, install a more sophisticated
burning utility.
