Answer 1

YES! And it's a good one, too!

Answer 2

comparable element. Technically that's a reader/author (basically approximately all of them examine), yet whilst CDs first got here out we referred to as the writers "burners" via fact inspite of the reality that we ought to write to a floppy and alter it, as quickly because it replaced into on the CD it replaced into unchangeable, in different words we "burned" the image onto the CD. so as that they grew to become standard as burners. yet technically they're writers. The words are interchangeable now.

Answer 3

Yes

Answer 4

Yes, absolutely it is the same thing, unless of course, you are replacing your American Flag with your DVD burner, then, it is not the same.

The opposite of burning is called ripping.

Answer 5

it sure is the same thing. it reads cd at 40x speed. It writes to CD-R at 40x speed. it re-writes to CD-RW at 32x speed, it writes to dvd+/-r at 16x, rewrites dvd+rw at 8x.

Answer 6

Yes. That is just refering to the different speeds and types of discs can be burned

Yes, absolutely. Different ways the same thing is told causing all this confusion.
