CD going obsolete?
I picked up my new Quilters Newsletter magazine with a CD sealed in the bag. I thought to myself, how long has it been since I actually put a CD in the computer? Ages and ages and I think they need to re-think their " freebies". How long has it been since you used one in a computer?

You are right it has been a long time.
|
Fairly recently. I have the Farmer's Wife CD for EQ and one for quilt labels that I use quite a bit.
|
Most of mine are downloaded and stored in cloud storage. I only have to access the part I want not the whole cd. The only time I put a cd in my computer is to send to cloud. Cloud storage is cheap if you need more then the free allowable space.
|
My new computer only has place for memory stick.....no place for CD and I have several on quilting I wanted to use. DH took the one from The Farmer's Wife and put it on a stick for me, works really good.

I use CDs with my embroidery machine designs

i shall be very sad when CDs are no longer available.
great for "hands on" mass backup that's less vulnerable than just hard drive. no need to entrust my data to a cloud. inexpensive, doesn't take up much room. and ... i already have a pile of LPs i can't play. i'd rather not add a stack of CDs to the "useless" box. don't want to have to buy equipment to play mp3s. |
If I came across a computer with no CD I think I would think twice about getting it. I still like to down load my CD's to itunes and have too many applications I can add to my computer.
|
I have cd's for several things like Word, games, etc. There would be a lot of upset people if they eliminate them.
|
All my photos are stored on CD's, I mean a lot. I wish they would quit making things obsolete.
