What is "CD-ReWritable"?

CD-RW is the most recent addition to the compact disc family. Originally tagged "CD-Erasable," the official name is now CD-ReWritable. As the name implies, CD-RW is a media and recording system that allows the user to erase previously recorded information and then to record new information onto the same physical location on the disc. This is accomplished by means of a new CD-RW media using "phase change" technology that allows a laser beam to change the media material from amorphic to crystalline by means of a shift in recording power. The new CD-RW drives have all the functionality of previous CD-R drives, allowing them to write to CD-R media as well as adding the new function of erasing previously recorded information and recording new information on CD-RW media.
