Have never burned CDs, but I assume I would take our CD player (which i'm pretty sure has a burning mode), plug it in to my computer, and look up "how to burn CDs"

Surprised they even know what a music CD is.

I don't know how film is developed and nobody ever made fun of me for not knowing.

alyssa, @tamaranians

Maybe its just the generation z in me but how did people burn CDs? Like how did you just get a blank CD and put songs on it?

Friendly Fat Hottie, @TeriAmour

There are people alive that don't know how to burn CDs. I'm fucking old.

To be frank I am a 30 year old and had to think hard to remember how to burn a cd, and even then. I remember that you just picked the option to burn a cd lol. Remember when you actually needed 2 cd rom drives because images weren't a thing.

They must consult the ancient tomes. Or I guess ask one of us who have.

I still have my old CD holders somewhere.

I used CloneCD. It had an icon of a sheep. Because Dolly.

I never learned to burn CD's cause I had a friend whose dad burned them for us. Not sure if that makes anyone feel old or not.

Don't worry, even in Gen Alpha there are some people who know how to burn CDs (in theory), but probably never did, as it is not so widespread now.
