Dear Ant(Dude): I am pleasantly surprised that this thread got more than its original post, as these newsgroups are inactive! Thanks ever so much for replying!

Do all of them still work? What brands of discs and burners are they? Are they all gold CDs? I tend to avoid rewritable discs. Maybe I do not need to be so cautious.

However, I wrote: #################################################################### #"E.g.

Ant kindly wrote: |------------------------------| |"I agree even with new burns."| |------------------------------| As that is a response to a long post with many points, I am not sure what is or are being agreed to! Please clarify. Also I expressed questions and doubts in this original post. I hope to learn. Ant kindly wrote: |---------------------------| |"Heck, use clouds if you're| |into it.
