For things that are "hmmm".
Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

It's not a CD-RW.
Not worth ibuying.
CD-RW was generally more of a gimmick than a useful format - especially once flash drives appeared and then doubled in size every several months.
CD-R was king for burning audio CDs or general data (until DVD-R came along).
cd-rw were very useful when internets were dialled-up (or later ADSL) and you were working on large image files on different desktops
gimmick was the zip drive ☞
