Problem burning CDs

A question from Sirrong: "I use Windows Media Player to burn CD's. When I use a CD-RW I find I cannot get more than one CD onto it. The disc will not be full - yet I cannot add another tune onto it. Can you advise how to rectify this."

A. It's not possible to add tracks to a CD-RW burnt using the Windows Media Player. Here's the explanation from Microsoft's website: "You cannot burn additional files to a CD after burning is completed. If you are using a CD-RW, you can erase the entire CD before using the Player to burn files to the CD again.".
The reason that it's not possible to add files a CD-RW recorded as an audio CD, is that an audio CD requires a Table-of-Contents written at the start of the disc, and to be "finalised" so that it can be played in domestic CD players.
