Yeah I'm not gonna lie this is me. I've burned iso's to CDs before but I really not get it. The cds I had could only be burned once and then got write protected and I didn't know how to undo to. I'm just gonna stick with my flash drives
Flash drives are definitely better than burning ISOs to disc, but don't forget that we had CD-RW discs that allowed multiple burns.
In HS photography class the teacher gave us CD-RW discs to use as flash drives to keep our pictures on and they actually lasted all semester using them every day.
i never thought the rw discs worked well enough to be trustworthy but for the application you described ie not critical it did the job. damn i remember those days. so glad about usb drives and now i guess everyone just uses cloud.
