I've got stacks of blank CD-R if any one needs them.
The inside joke is that I alternately introduce my wife as either my ex-girlfriend, or as my first wife. You've met her.

Her favorite holiday is Easter, so I made a mix CD with my best attempt at Easter music. I should start an annual tradition of playing it on Easter... next year.

My favorite holiday is Halloween, which is her least favorite (read despised).

I progressed to double density DVD-R, started a large collection of movies courtesy of Netflix, and then had my collection stollen. Poetic justice. It cost $75 to replace the window that was smashed out. 3 out at a time meant I averaged 6 movies a week to my collection. There's no way Netflix was making money on my subscription. Can't claim that now.

Never got into Bluray, don't own a single Bluray movie, and never had a Bluray burner. I've got a Bluray player in my Playstation 3, which was half the reason I bought it despite the fact I've never played a Bluray disc. Physical media was dead by the time it came out. I can't be bothered to walk to a machine and feed it a disc to watch something.
