CD Turns 29 today

So the CD-ROM format turned 29 today – or at least it says so.

The Compact Disc Turns 29

“Today the compact disc turns 29. The first CD was manufactured at a Philips factory in Germany on August 17, 1982. In case it comes up, the first one to roll off the assembly line was The Visitors by ABBA.”

I still buy or get gifted the odd CD but I mostly just download MP3’s from iTunes. I don’t use it for back-up anymore.
