Hi

Someone is asking me to let them borrow CD-RW discs to see if they will =
work in their home theatre DVD Player. Apparently they have tried many =
brands and most do not work.

My question to you is, Can a CD-RW disc be read in a home theatre DVD =
player?

I was always under the impression that a CD-RW disc can only be read in =
the machine that has the software that created it. I didn't even think =
that they could be read in a normal cd-rom.

Am I totally wrong or have things changed drastically since I last heard =
about this sort of stuff?

I have asked the guy if he means he wants a DVD-RW or even a CD-R (to =
make VCD's) but he insists it is a CD-RW he needs.

I am totally confused. Please help me shed some light on this subject.
