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

    And you did not share that loot of floppys with the rest of the world? D:

    The inmates at the prison that I was working at all had off brand CD Walkmans.

      I thought about it. But I all belonged to a dead guy. And I thought to my self. This is cool and all and I can nit pick through this load of stuff yes But he is dead and I’m alive. And this stuff didn’t do him any good in the end. So I’d rather not waste my time.

      I did find this though funny enough there is an archive online of all the contents in it
