Default What are 'audio' CD-Rs for?

Since a CD-R is write once how is it possible to test the recording
parameters without actually recording on the disc? If the software does lay
down some form of 'reference' data to the disc how then can the disc be
'overwritten' ?


There's an area on the disk reserved for that purpose.
