If the user has CDRW capable drivers installed you should be able to
treat the CD like a normal drive. The only time it would become an
issue (I think) is if you were attempting random access which would be
bad from a performance POV or random updating of files which could
waste a lot of space and cause hassle when the CD becomes unexpectedly
full.

How are you thinking of using the CD?
