differences, erasing entire CD, and quickly erase

[Hoan]

Anyone knows the differences between erasing CD entirely, and quickly erase CD? I use quickly erase CD, it takes less time and burn a new one and I didn't see any differences

Quick erase is like Quickformat in DOS
Just erasing index information not content of the files

I use quick erase when I'm trying out my creations before burning the final show. Sure saves a lot of frustration and coasters. For the final burn I always use CDR unless I'm burning for another person who's player only accepts CDRW then I'll use a clean one.

I'm not sure if things ever changed, but quick erase will not release the space occupied, only erasing entire CD would give you the full capacity of a CD-RW.
