I stated that I was unsure in the first paragraph if Nero finalizing a RW
would prevent erasing.

I do know that my DVD recorder that I use for recording TV programs
finalize a DVD RW so it can't be erased by that or any other machine. May
totally be device dependent. Again only stating what I know in that
respect.


It is device dependant. Many DVD video recorders will happily erase
finalised disks.
