Make any new recordings on cd-r disks as "multi-session" disks.

On older cd-r disks you should be able to add additional material as long as
their is necessary space on the disk.

Unless you "closed" the disks when you made them.

Check the options available in Nero 6.0, and see what choices can be made.
