I have done a few of these upgrades for customers and after spending hours on the phone to toyota, UBD and other mapping software places it became apparent that most vehicle manafactures use a different format for reading the software specifically so no other software can be used. UBD make the same software in various formats to supply to different manafacturers.

I'm not sure about the possibility of reusing a disc though. If you can find somebody willing to give you there update disc and see if it works more than once or if they are single use only!
Cheers
