I think that the 700*10448580 is closer to the actual thing because they
say that with "overburn" a CDr will hold approximately 720 MB worth of
data. The multiplication comes closer to that.

hello,
i know that when talking about ram, a megabyte isn't actually 1,000,000 bytes,
but rather 1,048,580 bytes. but when talking about the capacity of a cd-r,
does it actually have 700,000,000 bytes or 700*1048580 bytes?
thanks for the info,
