I wouldn't have survived college without those cheap burnable CD-ROMs. You'd buy 10 packs of Zip drives in bulk and every single one on the pack would fail.

I owned a zip drive for a hot second. CDRWs ended up being far cheaper and better.

  Zip was really useful when for DAW work for awhile untill decent sized thumb drives came out, just because burning cds was too slow for machines being used on time share.
