burning a CD - what does that actually mean?  

The first few times I ripped a CD I was afraid it would copy the files over but wipe the CD in the process 😂

No difference??? Like the cd has copies in it to make it recover and that "rips" it???

@@hodayfa000h no, burning a CD burns the information onto it. You're copying onto it. Ripping a CD takes the information from it and puts it on your drive, so you're taking a copy of it. CDs don't usually have backups on them, but maybe you could do that? Can you partition a CD and make a backup drive on it?

@@kugelblitz1557 ah i see. But no i was referring to the fact if i remember correctly cds have some empty space that is backup for your data so if it gets scratched it can be recovered

so we're torturing a cd?

lol

What’s the difference

@@Torch73269 DVDs are pink or blue

DvDs are used for video, and CDs are for music or audio. I think?

​@@MBiz. No, you can use both for either purpose. DVDs are a different format than CDs and they have more storage.

The concept is the same.

Copied

It does catch on fire for 1 sec

DVD is a CD because it's the same form factor, a compact disc, now I've gone crosseyed!😅

You don’t need to be that guy. It’s literally exactly the same thing

cd's nu-

Not up my a-

"Select our big blue brick book, and sign in please!"

"You have to put the cd UP YOUR AS-"

Lego island was awesome

@@speedwavekingaltchannel530 proof?

Never thought of it that way Sir. Thank you for expanding my thinking horizons

None of the Xbox consoles use CDs. The OG Xbox and Xbox 360 use DVDs, Xbox One and Series S/X use Blu-rays

@@heavy0119 shut up nerd

How can you see that?

​@@Greydonkey. The color, CD are more green in the back

​@@elesobrad1926 I've seen CDs without that

Have tons of films on DVD myself. Have moved slightly to digital for some releases, but I still have my discs.

You can read them, and write on them✍. And you can poke your finger through them.👉

yeah, the organic dye on normal CD-Rs are just one-time changable. CD-RWs have a metallic layer that can be altered again and again for a limited certain limited amount of times. Hence why certain CD drives (like many old Audio CD players) can't read CD-RWs but would read most CD-Rs just fine.

Not true

@@nogrammer look at the first reply.

There are also no bumps on a burned disc.

You can even burn pirated games!

You can do that without burning something

​@@henrysanecdotes5323could you explain?

@@user-qs2ln5jp5o Things can change color without burning

​@@henrysanecdotes5323fair point... Then you also know CDs can turn bad when exposed to UV light

are you stupid on purpose

Only with a CD-RW that doesn't have an organic dye layer that the laser changes (hehe or roasts). CD-RWs have a metallic layer that melts and gets re-molten to the desired pits and lands for each time you burn informations on it. A Standard CD-R cannot be reversed once burned. Once burned it becomes READ only. But that also makes it a safe medium for Data that shall not be altered again. Like Data Backups that need to be absolutely write protected. The same goes for DVD+-R and BD-R.

they are read, as in when you read a book in school

@@slav4335 well yeah it was a joke about the captions cuz the captions said red
