Yeah I'm not gonna lie this is me. I've burned iso's to CDs before but I really not get it. The cds I had could only be burned once and then got write protected and I didn't know how to undo to. I'm just gonna stick with my flash drives
They're not "write-protected", they're literally a write-once medium. The name "burner" isn't a metaphore, that's actually what they do.
There was some kind of “append” mode on CD-R though
Correct, but only if the disk did not get finalized. Most cd burning applications and what was built into windows towards the end of that being relevant allowed for burning some data without finalizing the disc, but that is not the case generally when you are burning an iso.
