OP is a noob CD burner, as a professional I used the beams from a full moon with a magnifying lenses to burn in the tracks in the CD. ;P

Generation X will share no secrets with the younger goons
ThatsNotMickeyMouseThatsJustTitDirt
Gen y here. Had CD burners and 28.8k dialup, you hold no secrets.
Painalschmainal
you only say that because you don't know the secrets.

This is where the term fire came from like fire mixtape. We would draw Napster runes drawn around the fire for extra summoning strength.

I've been looking for the source of that gif for years, thank you <3

Don’t forget we were naked while doing this and had the title of the album & it’s lyrics written on our naked bodies. It was de wae.

We were naked most of the time anyway. Only the very rich could afford clothes.

All the while holding your breath and not so much as opening an application on the computer in fear of the dreaded buffer underrun.

So we have reached a gen. That doesn't know how to burn cd's. Interesting, and scary.

As a 31 year old.........ouch....-coughs dust-

Speakers of boombox 1 (stop laughing) facing mic pickups of boombox 2 (seriously, stop it). Pressing play and play/rec respectively.

Before that people would record songs off of the radio onto their fucking tape players. And before that they'd keep singers hostage at home.
AirplaneNerd
Ahh, simpler times
thequeenishome
Sat. morning I'd have REC/PLAY/PAUSE all pushed down with Casey Kasem's Top 40 on the radio. Little celebratory dance when I'd get my song.
DefaultImgurUsername
I remember doing this. It was so difficult getting the songs that I wanted. I live in aus and singers that I like don't tour without guards
THEREAINTNOWEEPININTHISHOME
I remember figuring I could tap the record down button halfway to mute swear words so my parents wouldn't get mad when I'd listen.
chupathingy99
I did that once but i was standing behind the stereo and forgot the orientation of the knob. Ended up blasting FUCK out of the stereo.
AsheLake
Nice.
shinagami091
They would make copies off records using some kind of glue
favoritebutrarelyupvote69akapostseidon
The tape thing where you used pencils Or pens to rewind (TDK) and had to have a walkman to play those tapes. I love my childhood
JCrashB
Not to mention the abundant spraying of chicken blood to tame a specific demon called 'Buff erund errun'.
manslut
I mean I feel like if you even know the phrase "burn a cd" you know how to do it. First person is trolling.
DaKahuna81
Sometimes the ritual would go wrong and our fire ends up with a virus or an ad featuring a bad Bill Clinton impression.
vesperlynd
Apparently generation "whateveritisrightnow" couldn't use Google if their life depended on it.
PapaNurgleLovesYou
Easy contextualization, a CD is just a digital storage device, a small hard drive.
Axiomatic13
Speaking as an old person, (50 this month.) This is nothing compared to VHS vs BETA. (I still design servers for a living.) Step up Gen-Z?!?
iamthisguy247
We burnt CDs with a CD burner, and that worked by...uh, whatever the post said.

I couldn't find this on Imgur... (hint hint ;)

Even millennials know how to do this

This is how the professionals burn CD's! https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/real_programmers.png

Same way you put them on a floppy or zip disc, duh.
digme
Except you can fit more than one song on a CD.
RiskItForATotalBiscuit
I sometimes still burn CDs to listen to in the car

So many sacrificed virgins...
spadedoesstuff
That is why the music industry hates pirating music. They know that people die when we burned the CDs.
MyBloodPressureDontLie
You slipped through the cracks apparently.
Actualdeadpool
Well it has to be pretty virgins, you see

hifive2wifei
Funny, your mom said the same about you.

In all reality though fuck a CD how does any sound audio work. Like a record for instance? I'm sorry you scratched a piece of vinyl 1/2
parkerh17
And the machine that reads it with a needle knows how to make voices from it? You recorded yourself in a program that then converted it 2/3
parkerh17
Electrical pulses that then gets converted back to a voice when you hit play? 3/3
ohmegatron
Yeah, you got it!
UncleKarl
I still burn cds! But im old and youtube to mp3 conversion is free. Not paying a dollar for a song.
thefunnestguyatparties
Might i take a moment to encourage you to support and pay the artists you do really enjoy for their work.
Thetingwitdating
Had a mono tape deck with Stop Play & FFD. To rewind the tape, u flipped it, hit FFD, hit Stop, flipped it again, then Play. Portable tho...
McFancyPants
2/X since theirs could only do FF, and she got tired of rewinding it with a pencil... And then she called me stupid when I told her. <3

1/X I remember being 6 years old, and laughing at my 15 year old cousin because she had to rewind her tape in our car's cassette player,
TheRicM
I remember that procedure

Generation Z googles things, this was made by a millennial to get free internet points. Let’s not pretend this is real now.
BananaAddedForScale
Boy you got them all mixed up now.
JHawke
Generation Z is the generation that CAN google anything, but easily the vast majority never seems to realize... or know how.
LuckyLemming
Working with a number of young girls and looking at my nephews and nieces... Gen z does not Google things.
Bigiee4
Actually man, if I’m gonna be honest, I agree with you, I just did not like the way the original post was written.
iluvdis
I'm 25 in college.... an 18 year old asked the professor how to flip a coin... what's worse is that three others asked to be shown as well..
LuckyLemming
Hahaha agreed. Just had a giggle thinking about the girls I work with when I read your comment xD
parkerh17
How do they learn things without Google. Didnt gen z start in 1999? They are up to 19 years old they def google.
Bigiee4
Don’t you remember being a teenager? They already know everything.
LuckyLemming
Maybe they do but not for relevant info. Tbh a lot of people don't. Half the tech stuff I do for work and the family is simply based on 1/2
LuckyLemming
The fact that I look stuff up on Google and they don't.
