Note

The lead-in and lead-out areas signify the beginning and end points of a session. They are not part of the data but contain information about the session itself. Basically, a session consists of a lead- in, data, and a lead-out.

Track-at-Once (TAO)

This mode is used when writing data to a disc one track at a time. More tracks can be added later if there is enough space left on the disc. This is why Track-at-Once mode is sometimes referred to as Multisession.
