For those who use CDs for music, which writable CD type do you use, and why?

Main differences:

  • CD-R can only be written once
  • CD-RW is more expensive

In 2008? CD-R, they're cheap and you aren't going to change the songs on the disc rather than just burn a new disc entirely.

In 2024? micro SDXC card in my phone.

Do any phones even have that anymore?

Pretty sure it's easier to find a phone with a mini SD slot than a phone with a CD player.

But it's easier to find a phone with a CD player than a phone with cassette player.

But it's way easier to find a phone with a micro SD slot than either of those. Mini SD was a thing and it was very short lived.

I forgot what it was called and rolled the dice on mini. I should've known whichever one I picked would probably be wrong πŸ™ƒ

I don't think I've ever owned a smartphone without one.

Sony phones have SD slots and… gasp a 3.5 mm headphone jack

Mid range Samsungs and pretty much everything that's not made by either Apple, Google, or Samsung still has it. We are just in the ridiculous situation that the more expensive the phone the less functionality it has.
