Correct, it "should not" damage it. It should just say the
typical "insufficient disk space". You just need to wait for
more input from Nero users, and from the person you got the CD.

Because CD's were a totally new form of media at the time,
nothing else like them. They have NEVER been the way they
should be. A technology that never was ready for release due
to the problems, yet it was released. To this day the same
type of issues plague them. Partially to blame is flaky buggy
burning software that's always released years too early! Then
you have the crappy non-existent quality control of the disks.
Then also you have the idiot manufacturer's of the drives that
shove them out the door as fast as they possibly can, also
without any quality control, and with buggy firmware--and with
every new model release is a worse POS than the previous models
thanks to Ch*ina. Each new model is made worse, with more
problems, using cheaper garbage components from Ch*ina.
They'll never learn. All they care about is money and how many
unsuspecting victims buy them.

Right, Clint.
And I probably damaged the CD by trying to add too much data -
twice - to
the disk. I was wrong about trying to put too much data on the
disk, but it
shouldn't damage it. It should just give me a message - which
it did -
saying that I'm trying to put too much on the disk. It should
then let me
save the right amount of data. (I was over the limit by only 4
MB the first
time, and 2 MB the second time).
I wonder how CDs got to be so popular when they are so
delicate, fussy,
fragile, problematic, and ornery.
