I think once you re-write on them, it automatically erases the data on it. I'm not totally sure though since I haven't actually done this before.

How do i erase and rewrite?

If you're using panther you'll need to open Disk Utility located in Applications»Utilities and select the erase tab, the rest should be easy to work out yourself. If you're using Jaguar or earlier you could use the Disk Copy app located in the same folder...

I don't believe that you can just continue burning onto it, I think that you have to erase using either Disk Utility or Toast.
