For some reason, car players always seem to play CDRW - even although

Probably because most car players have three lasers, two for tracking
and one for tracking and reading. A single laser having to do both can
have difficulty if there is a reflection problem with the disc - as
with CDRW - but three together would potentially be 2E3 or 8 times
more capable of tracking.

Excellent. Nice to know I wasn't just imagining it.
