Just open direct CD (double click the system tray icon or from the
Easy CD project selector) then click on the erase CD button.

You end up with a blank CD.

It depends what sort of CD. If it is a rewritable you can erase it. A CDR
cannot be erased, so you are stuck with it.
The format overhead is the price you pay for having direct access from
Explorer etc.

Erasing a DirectCD formatted cd-rw disc is a two-step process: First
erase with DirectCD and then do a full erase in Easy Coaster Creator.
