I would be interested on how one coule possibly: "deleted or recopied a
file on a CDR". As far as I know, only by using a knife can one delete
things on cdrs. Maybe I misunderstand again.

If there was blank space on a cdr before the point that it's fixated, I'm
positive that it would get dded. I just am unsure how (or why) to achieve
this.
If you haven't used dd on a cd, you should try it on a small one, maybe
burn a few cdrw's. It's fun! :)
