Wise call on the A3 scanner. Have been lucky, or fortunate, in that respect. CD refused to read, so decided to copy but had to replace the 5-disc cd changer & cd recorder as that one function decided to fail. Everything else worked !! Seller seemed impressed that I knew about.
Find the Apple disc reader has trouble reading more than twenty tracks, so there’s always the Samsung cheapie, as back-up, but both had trouble reading. Copied with the new recorder and all’s well that ends well. Both read the copied disc, without a glitch.
Guess what I was trying to say, is that the digital age has to be doing more harm than good.
You wouldn’t have to worry about “reading” discs, if digital but perhaps set in my ways, as I still prefer the hard copy (books, movies, songs).
That’s another thing (!) and perhaps more to the point, that the hard copies are harder to get. Easier to download songs, movies and books, plus they don’t take up space, but I begrudge places like iTunes, setting their “hooks” in me, as noted, trying to delete “their” songs. You can’t.
Apple used to be all-in-one, but now you have to buy externals but guess that’s another story…..
Always back-up. I have three hard drives but it’s all do-it-yourself; not wholly reliant upon the computer, or so I think.
