DVD vs CD

[Judge Hades]

To each there own then. Be technologically backwards. In my experience DVDs are just as durable as CDs. No more and no less. If you actually take care of your discs they should last a fairly long time.

[Dark_Raven]

CDs are dead.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

That's an interesting theory...

 

And yet, games and other media still come on CDs...

 

I see a flaw to this theory.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

The only flaw is those who cling to the past and think CDs are still in when in fact DVDs are the new kid on the block.

Oh, poor baby, deal with the fact not everyone is going to agree with you

[Judge Hades]

It has nothing to about you agreeing or disgreeing with me. It has to do with the fact that you are wrong. DVDs are no more fragile than CDs. They are made of the same basic materials and have the same basic function. The only major difference is that a DVD can hold more data.

 

I don't see how a DVD could be more or less fragile than a CD.

[Darque]

It's ok, Hades, it's ok Take a chill pill already

[Judge Hades]

I am perfectly chilled, and shakened not stirred but that is besides the point.

I don't see why this is even a question... DVD, more space, more uses, more everything.

[Judge Hades]

I don't know, Haitoku. I guess Volourn and Darque are expressing their inner Luddite.

[Darque]

Are you still tweaking out?

[Judge Hades]

Nope, I am jut being my normal self.

[Darque]

Nope, I am jut being my normal self.

tweak, tweak, tweak tweak tweak...

[Volourn]

Behave Hades, or we'll throw our piles of cds at you.... and we'll laugh at your dozen of DVdS. ha!

 

Besdies, why is this so personal for you? Is my CD game collection hurting YOu that much?

 

You remind me of the Europeans who just had to 'educate' the Natives about 'real' civilization.

 

LOLLERS :D

Yes. You support a dead system.

[Volourn]

It's not dead until it's stop being used. It's still be using so it is not dead.

 

Game over.

 

Do you know the defintion of dead? <_<

Definition of dead: Hades' arguments

[Judge Hades]

There is dead and there is clinging to life by life support filled with tubes, a respirator and a cathider.

[Volourn]

Heh.

[Haitoku]

Darque/Volourn...

 

Why would you want to take care of six disc instead of just one?

 

Why would you want to have to keep changing CDs while installing a game rather then just popping in one DVD?

 

Why would you want to spend hours backing up stuff on tons of CDs rather then a couple of DVDs?

Anything you or Hades say. It's like watching Beavis and Butthead.

I've already explained this

 

And for the record, most of the things I'd "need" to back up can fit on a floppy.

[Judge Hades]

 

A.. A... A FLOPPY! OMG!

 

You are so 20th century.

"Anything you or Hades say. It's like watching Beavis and Butthead."

 

Yet... you are one of the constant repliers to our 'dead' posts. Logic please. "

 

 

"Why would you want to take care of six disc instead of just one?"

 

Not much a diff for me. They all come in one case anyways so eaisly stored.

 

 

"Why would you want to have to keep changing CDs while installing a game rather then just popping in one DVD?"

 

I haven;t had to constantly change CDs for an individual game for years whiel playing. Once it's installed; it's installed and only need the play disk.

I don't back up games. I find no need to.

I bet you have millions of lfoppy disks laying around for those back up when a perfectly good DVD-RW can do it all in one shot.

Not really, I just use a good ol' dependable CD.

 

One other thing... your statement doesn't make sense.
