Can you remove content from a CD-R?

I have a bunch of old CDs and I want to burn music on them so is there any way to delete the old music on them?

Update:

I used iTunes to burn the CDs. Does that seriously make a difference? I hadn't thought it would.

    a CD-R is not rewritable, anything you put on there you can't take off. If you want to be able to do that, you have to use CD-RWs.

    I have a bunch of CD-Rs too and I ended up just throwing them away or making art with them :P

    also, it does matter where they were burned, especially if it was itunes. apple doesn't like the competition being able to use its music.

    Sorry, that is rather not obtainable. A CD-R disc is recordable in basic terms as quickly as and might't be erased. in case you opt to erase your music, %., or different documents, then you definately ought to positioned it on a CR-RW, that's re-writeable countless circumstances over. Sorry mate, yet those are the data.

    By CD-R, if you mean Compact Disc Rewritable, than yes. It should work like a USB sorta. Go to 'My Computer'(W. Xp) or 'Computer'(W. Vista & 7)

    Depends how you burned it. If it was Windows media Player, you probably can.
