Wiping a DVD clean

[Doc]

So I'm trying to burn a 4GB iso file. Problem is, I only have 700 MB CD's and a 2GB flash drive. I thought "Oh hey, I have some useless DVDs laying around, and those're bound to have a lot of space on them." Nope. This one is 7 GB but it'll all full, so I went in and tried to delete the files. Doesn't work. What do?

Is it DVD-R or DVD-RW

[Doc]

Every DVD I've tried seems to be DVD+-RW

Let's be honest, you're trying to erase your porn before your parents find it.

Just format the disk.

Nah I don't download porn.

I'll try it tomorrow. Gonna sleep on it and think about what else to do. Thanks.

If the discs you have a DVD-RW then you should be able to follow these instructions to clear it: http://www.ehow.com/how_5055015_erase-dvd-rw.html

The RW stands for rewritable, meaning that you can clear any data from them and store different data onto it.
