Can you remember what CD was the first one you owned? I remember my sister and I getting a NSync CD lmao, I am not afraid to admit that I used to like their music when I was a kid. We got it for Christmas of 98, it was their self titled album. Though technically I was more into video games at the time so it truly did belong to my sister but she was told to share it with me.

I believe it was Big Willie Style by Will Smith but I'm not 100% on that.

The very first CD that I owned was a gaming CD. It contained games. During the early 2000s, my family bought a Pentium 2 computer. Those were the golden days of my life. We used to play games. Having said that, I used to have a collection of gaming CDs back then.

I recorded on empty CDs

I think that you need a rewritable CD in order to record something on it. Not all the CDs were rewritable. You also needed a specific kind of CD recorder in order to record on CDs. USBs changed everything, as you could upload and record anything on USBs.

You are right They had to be rewritable. I have not done it these days but the desktop has that facility just like how we do it on pendrives these days
