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 quality only approached "worth a shit" around the time DVD-R became common, and still didn't work in most devices.

Lol, what about cd+rw? Didn't those have better compatibility?

I honestly could barely remember that there were two, let alone which was better.

I do remember the better one was pointlessly more expensive. For the same price, I could usually get twice as many CD-Rs when I needed more, although it might come down to whether I wanted them with cases or on a spindle.
