          I didn’t want to post a link myself, because I didn’t know if that was OK in this sub, but it was pretty easy to find by searching “CD-R mirror”.

            Oh, it’s only 13" diameter? I’d rather just hang a real laserdisc on the wall in that case.

            I want a CD-R mirror that’s like 3’ wide.

              It’s still amazing IMO.

              A real laserdisc on your wall feels like a genuine statement piece, as if you’re into classic movies and old tech in a totally unironic way.

              The beauty of this huge CR-R is that it’s modelled after a completely normal and cheap as hell blank disc that came in spindles of 100 that you’d be slapping your MP3s on, and scribbling labels over with black marker pen.

              Its beauty is in the surreal and absurd tribute to a completely boring and everyday item.

    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.

          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.

      CD-RW was generally more of a gimmick than a useful format - especially once flash drives appeared and then doubled in size every several months.

      CD-R was king for burning audio CDs or general data (until DVD-R came along).

        cd-rw were very useful when internets were dialled-up (or later ADSL) and you were working on large image files on different desktops

        gimmick was the zip drive ☞ ZIP 250 USB Drive

        CD-RW was the lifeblood of my mp3-discman, i just loved to be able to add songs i just discovered!

    I like it. Yes it’s real. Amazon has it, but it’d be better to buy elsewhere if possible.
