There is a difference between blank CDs sold labelled as music as 
opposed to data CDs.
Blank "music" CDs work in stand-alone CD recorders, like the stereo 
systems that have recorders and cannot use standard data CD blanks.
I believe that there must some sort of label or tag pre-burnt into the 
boot(?) sector of the music CD blank that the recorder can recognise.

The "music" labelled disks are more expensive and so I've never bothered 
trying them in my computer to burn data onto.
