Compact Disc rewritable drives, also known as CD burners, are the latest technological craze to overload our computer-intensive existence, and offer a convenient and inexpensive way for music lovers to obtain and create music. CD burners can be used to make personal CD mixes (which means you can finally throw those old cassette tapes out the window), to record and mix original CD tracks, and, though illegal, for the common practice of copying entire albums from CD to CD or MP3 to CD. The larger capacity on CD-RW disc also allows users to copy larger documents onto one CD instead of multiple floppy disks.
