So how do you install operating systems?
The operating system is already there when I buy the device.

Actually about to reverse course on this one. As a data hoarder, bluray as cold storage seem like a sensible solution.

Well, most media is sensitive to one thing or another. I chose discs mostly because of convenience and cost per byte. I also believe I can control temperature and make copies often enough to last.

If you are doing long term storage (5+ years) i'm pretty sure that tapes win on costs

Man you ain’t lying about having random songs on them. I’m always equally impressed and disturbed by some of the CDs I’ve made in the past.
My co-worker's car was broken into while he was moving house. His cd collection was in the car and the only cd left was the one in the cd player. So we listened to who's next by the who all summer. Nothing quite like coming back from a rave at 6 in the morning with baba O'Riley blasting. The soundtrack to a perfect wasted summer.

Every person you meet will eventually be seen for the last time. It's odd how casual those departures can be.

Yep, it was the 10th time i was attempting to burn a clients files to DVD’s. I swore i was never going through that again. Then after i got a successful burn prompt, i went to hit ok and a fatal error had occured, and lo and behold the burn failed after verification. Joined the Navy within the week.

I thought about this a lot after the last time I saw this post. I am almost positive it was a The Prodigy mix that I made for myself. My little sister got a car with a CD drive in it as her first car and she asked for my old CDs and that's the latest one I can recall making.
Crazy to think that 10+ years after I made that CD now my little sister is listening to it haha. And I was already listening to many cd mixes my mom and father had given to me over the years. That CD case probably has illegally downloaded music burned to CDs from over 25 years ago in it. Not to mention several actual CDs that are probably almost 50 years old at this point. My father loved the classics and after he ripped his entire library to cram into his digital magic box he let a lot of the physical CDs go to his son's. at least 1 or two ended up on that cd case of mine.
