How to Remove Songs from a Recordable CD

Removing songs from a recordable CD only requires that the CD is rewritable. These type of CDs can be formatted so the songs can be erased and the CD recycled for multiple use. You can remove songs and add songs as many times as you desire. There is no limit on the durability of a rewritable CD, as long as it is not scratched or damaged in any way.
