Is it disc or disk?\nOr are both acceptable?\n\nI searched on http://www.dictionary.com and from there I could conclude that both are acceptable.\n\nMost companies use disc but I believe disk may be the proper word. Perhaps disc was just used because it is not possible to copyright a common word such as disk.\n\nExamples:  Compact Disc, Compact Disc with Read Only Memory, Compact Disc Rewritable, Compact Disc Recordable, Digital Versatile Disc, High Definition Digital Versatile Disc, Blu-Ray Disc, UMD

Interesting.  I think the word "fun" is overused and incorrectly used.  Synonyms for the word "fun" are amusing, enjoyable, entertaining, and pleasurable.  Any fact, whether good or bad can be interesting, but not all facts are entertaining, pleasurable, etc.  Some are just the opposite.

are you being serious? It means to make a copy of a CD.

The trend is definitely moving toward the computer based systems. Discs are  a nuisance to store, transport, and fumble around with. You can use either a laptop or portable PC with the right hardware and software installed. You will find more information at http://www.karaoke-tutor.com/digital-karaoke.html .

Electronic: extremely fast to store and retrieve information, but most are "volatile", i.e. lose the memory when the power is turned off.  Capacity is the lowest of the three, usual maximum in a PC is 4Gigabytes.  Most expensive of the three.\n\nMagnetic: very fast store & retrieve; information density high, so does not take much space; Capacity much larger than electronic, typical max capacity on a PC is 1000 Gigabytes.  Moderate cost.\n\nOptical: moderately fast to store & retrieve; very easy to remove optical media for safe storage in a separate building.  Lowest cost per gigabyte: a DVD-R costs 25p for 4Gigabytes.

That's a philosophical question.  In fact, it's probably one of the top-ten fundamental questions of philosophy that people have been pondering for millenia.  \n\nMy take on it is, it's like asking if a story is a physical object.  The media that it is stored on is certainly physical (a book, a cd, a neural network in a storyteller's mind...) but the story ITSELF is an abstract noun; something much less tangible.  \n\nI would say the same of the mind.  The mind certainly exists on a physical media, but the term "mind" also implies the intangible aspects of a set of neural networks... what it represents and means to that person, and to other people.  Mind is to brain as story is to book.

Its pretty much the same as copying CDs only that you use a DVD Writer as opposed to a CD Writer.  The disks work in the same way also, CDs can be for single use (CDR) or multiple use (CDRW), the same with DVDs, single use are DVDRs and multiple use ones are CDRWs.  You will also need software for doing it.   Basically thats it, just make sure that the stuff you are copying is not copyrighted...  I hope that helps...

A computer it's a system that depends each others devices. But if you want some more speed, buy more memory... if you want keep data like DVD's or movies, buy hard disk.

I download and share with anyone who wants it. I don't make money off of it. Am I breaking the law? I do the same thing with movies. Music and movies cost way to much to buy from the stores. Blank discs are cheap. When will big companies wake up and realize it is time to lower the costs?

No; A CD uses physical grooves on the disk to store information and a hard drive uses magnetism. Worse, I believe that after you take the disk out of a hard drive you can no longer ever use it because you can't line it up perfectly the way it was before, so you cannot simply put it back in.

What says disk mode? When are you doing when you get this message? What is not working? If you get a message asking if its ok to disconnect, say ok.\n\nYour question is too vague. Please be more specific.

It's illegal because of copyright laws.  Theoretically even burning CD's and DVD's for backup personal use is illegal.
