Sure. It's a snap with Nero. My CD-RW is assigned R:, and I just
saved this message to it from Xy4, then commanded dir R: and erased
the file. You have to format a RW CD with Nero, and there's a limit
on the number of erasures, but otherwise it's like a 5.25" floppy.
Whatever sw you buy, do NOT consider DirectCD/Easy CD, imho. Like

and manually clean up the Registry.
