Before a CD-R or CD-RW can be played in a standard CD Player, it must be finalized. During
finalization, a Table of Contents (TOC) is written to the CD.

few minutes in some cases.
ERASING A CD-RW (CD-RW ONLY)
Erasing processes will only work on an unfinalized CD-RW disc.

few minutes in some cases.
