Finalizing
Finalizing is the addition of TOC (recorded data information) to discs. 
If you finalize a CD-R, it will become playable on other CD players. 
Finalized CD-R discs cannot be used for additional recording.
If you finalize a CD-RW, it will become playable on other CD players 
that are compatible with CD-RW discs

finalization.
