The price, mostly. Blanks for WORM drives can cost as little as a tenth of the cost of a rewriteable, so it doesn't matter that much if mistakes are made in writing. The WORM drives themselves are also slightly cheaper. For writing audio CDs I would recommend a WORM. That sort of data doesn't really need the advantage of being able to remove and add new files. Plan the compilation, write it, enjoy - at less than 1UKP per disc.
