CD-MRW (CD Mount Rainier Rewrite) may eventually replace conventional floppydiskdrives, as CD-MRW finally simplifies random read/write access to CD-RW media. Drives supporting CD-MRW include defect management and address compatibility issues by specifying the exact UDF format for use on CD-RW discs. This ensures a standard for sharing discs between computers. Looking forward, newer operating systems versions (such as MS Windows XP) will have the drivers embedded to support the new writing format.
