chacune de ces sessions


Explanation:
was it your sentence :
"As you can see CD consists of at least one session. Each session in turn consists of so called lead-in, at least one track of either of three colors and lead-out. Note that lead-in and lead-out areas are rather big and occupy approximately 22MB altogether. This means that there is hard limit on number of sessions: 650MB/74min disk can't "stand" more than 29 sessions, provided that they (sessions) are empty!"
