I was browsing a technical store’s website and came across some DVDs. On sale. You’d need an optical drive to use them, unless you use them to decorate your walls
If you do use them, what do you use them for and why do you not just use hard drives, SSDs or USB thumb drives instead?
This is not a hate post. My whole existence is living in the 90’s, so… :P
No, and I no longer have any optical disk readers. My last disk reader was on an XBOne and that’s long gone
I used optical disks almost entirely for music and video content but gave up once convenience of streaming media caught up. The thing is I don’t care about owning any. If don’t really have music or movies I like listening/watching over and over so buying doesn’t make sense. My comparison to streaming is broadcast. I’m paying $20/mon for essentially radio but without the inane chatter, ads, and unrelenting repeat of pop music.
Edit: in response to another comment - even for operating systems, I have gigabit fiber so download it as needed whenever possible
