   It is written by burning into the media. Without being pedantic. How   
   else do you think it is "written"? We could say "melted" but we dont -   
   the word used is "burned".

   Don't agree. That is one incorrect interpretation of what the word means   
   in the context of CD/DVD media. The "burning" process references the   
   laser burning into the material, not it "destroying" the medium.
