A single-session disc (CD-ROM-Read-Only Memory) can read but not write (record) or erase. Manufacturers write all items on the single-session disc at one time, and multisession disc (CD-RW-Compact Disc-Rewritable) is an erasable disc you can write on multiple times.

How do you use disc scratch repair?

You fix discs by using a kit with a series of abrasives, from course to light, to wear down scratches - step by step - to a smooth finish. Professional systems use multiple abrasives, consisting of different hardness and shapes (sharp to smooth). Regardless of product or system used, the key is to use a series of abrasives (more than one stage) to gradually bring the plastic back to a polished surface. If you want to remove all scratches on your disc, take a look at the 5-stage Scratch Pro repair kit. It will bring the disc back to its original shine and you will have a kit on hand to fix the next disc. Also do a search for scratch repair to see what is out there in your area. To do a targeted search, use the + sign in front of the search words +disc +scratch +repair

How is single-session disc different from a multisession disc?

When you write to a CD or DVD, two things happen. First the files are copied to the disk, then the directory is written and the disk is "closed" so it can no longer be written to. With a multisession disk, you write files, but you do not "close" the disk. You can add more files to it (or delete old ones although they are not exactly removed from the disk, just from the directory). You can continue to change it (each change being a "session") until either the disk is full or you "close" it by finalizing the directory.
