They haven't reached a number that high yet...

I'd say bout a hundred or two truthfully. 10k? What do you do for a living? Sell "back-up" copies?

That it?! haha, didn't you read the article saying about 95 percent of software in vietnam is pirated? Pretty much all low 90's or upper 80's for asian countries in that south eastern area. Might not be true, but I can believe it. No flames from asians please, I'm viet myself.

STFU thisismatt. Burners were introduced in 1991, and reached 200K CD sales by the next year.

RichieZZZZ, I'm still using one of those burners! Haha, I got a sony 4x sczi. Yea, I helped friends make &quot;back-ups&quot; too, but then once SC came out with that darned cd code, I stopped. I don't see a need to upgrade my burner yet. Maybe for my birthday in august I'll get a 12xer by tdk or plextor.

maybe like 150.


10k, thats a load of bs that means for the last 7.87 years you burnt 3 or 4 cds a day. I dont even think they had commercial writers out then.

Heheh the sad thing is 4.5 yrs ago ppl would pay $10 a cd for a mix, I kno since I bought one and then I decided hell I needed a burner. That original $275 investment paid for itself quickly

I don't really belive that guy really burned 10K cd's either. If he really had one of the first ones the blanks were hella expensive and the blanks used to cost almost as much as a music cd and the damn things produced a lot of coasters.
