Do you use CDs now?

    I think CDs are not being used to store data more now due to new technologies.

    Do you still use it?

    No. I don't use CDs for almost 2 years now. I only use DVDs, USB flash drive or hard disk drive.

    I use mostly flash drives, but I do back up on CD's as well just in case I lose the flash drives.

    I still use CDRs for clients, because a lot of them don't have DVD drives.

    The only CD's I use are the kind that make me money;)

    But seriously USB disks are the way to go now, plus theres tons of different ways to store data online now it's not even funny. Google is very nice for this.
