That.... Can't be true. Really??!? Are you talking like CD-RW drives? Or like walkman players?

Like a machine that would both play CDs and record things like off the TV.

Do you mean DVD?

I never saw it, but I swear he said CD.

Can't you call him again and ask what the fuck was that? /s

Can't be true because I can't see any use of buying like that.

I looked it up and apparently CD preceded VHS and Betamax so I can see how someone who needed or wanted to record and store media files would dish out that kind of money, especially if it was for a business or something

I am a bit confused, you are talking about some other type of disk.

It's so fucking unbelievable that someone could get that.
