[QUOTE="chscag, post: 886034, member: 46727"] To Kevriano: You can not multi-session write to a DVD or DVD+RW in OS X either with Disk Utility or third party software. Definitely a disappointment to folks who are switchers from Windows. :[ You can with a CDR or CDRW but even at that, it sometimes does not work. I have had "Burn" overwrite the TOC on several CD multi-session burns effectively destroying the entire contents. "BurnX Free" does a better job but the result is awkward. If you burn two sessions and mount the CD, it will show on the desktop as two separate CDs. OS X definitely has some catching up to do with Windows when it comes to writing media. Regards. [/QUOTE]
