it comes with one
I need to go back through my music library and rip my CDs again in lossless. $20 is worth it.
One with Blu-Ray might be more useful and not much more?

8x? Didn't these go up to 72x back in the day? Ah good ol memories of Napster and Nero...

CDs went up to 52x but DVDs were up to 24x. But 1x dvd = 9x CD

People like me who still own 1000's of CD's and haven't gotten around to ripping them all.

Or people that run older games and software off a CD, also me.
I'm not crapping on this deal, as I know people have different workflows and practices within their life, but wouldn't it just make more sense to digitally store all of this data on a NAS, and run games and software from a .iso in a program like Daemon tools (or whatever the modern equivalent is)?

One is illegal. The other isn't.

That is what I do for games and software, but I have a ton of movie and TV DVDs lying around so I want my new dvd-less laptop to be able to run it. And not all of these movies and TV are on streaming (or are only on streaming for a limited time) so I am keeping my physical copies.

The portable CD/DVD drives that I purchased all came with attached USB cables. Very short. Approximately 12-inches or less. Plan on buying extension cables if you are planning on attaching this to a desktop.

I think this deal is more for people wanting to do as you suggest and getting old media from CDs onto the cloud or local storage. If you have a newer PC there's no disc drive to do that so for $20 your problem is solved.

This should state YMMV. Unavailable for shipping and no stores in stock near me.

What is this technology from another era. What next, are we going to see zip drives and 100mb zip disks on this site?

And how do you propose I digitize my CD's? I am not going to rebuy entire albums on MP3 when I own the CD's laugh out loud Hence spending $20 on this drive.

I was planning to buy Bluey dvds for my daughter since that's the cheapest way to buy Bluey espisodes online. This will be helpful to rip the dvds and store on my NAS. Thanks.

To everyone tech shaming here, I wish I could be there when you have to explain via neural implants to your grandkids what a cell phone was while they make snarky jokes. LMAO Plenty of places to still use a CD in these modern times.
