Mike Richter's Cockamamie Mumbo Jumbo on UDF (inherent)
=======================================================
This is Mikey's response to the question why Roxio's DirectCD causes
Win2k system unstable: Is it Roxio? Or, is packet writing itself
unstable under WIN 2000?
======================

Subject: What is Responsible for Packet Writing Instability?
There is an inherent problem in UDF, particularly with
fixed-length packets
It is that the directory information for the disc is held and
modified in RAM between loading the disc and ejecting it.
Anything which precludes a complete, valid package being written
back risks the whole disc.
======================
In the case of the UDF as implemented by DirectCD, the directory is not
held in ram until the disc is ejected -- supposedly the inherent problem
of UDF:

I don't believe this is true with the latest versions of
DirectCD (I'm using 2.5d with Win98SE).
I've watched the disc write lights on my Plextor drives when
ejecting a DirectCD CD-RW disc, and the drive never does any
writing at that time.
Once, in an attempt to prove this, I wrote a bunch of files to
a DirectCD CD-RW disc. As soon as the write pulses ceased,
I pressed the computer's RESET button.
After the computer restarted, the CD-RW disc was fine, and
all the files I had just written were fully accessible.
