A DVD is a disc no bigger than a slice of toast, only round. It's easy to use, light to carry and cheap to buy. They are good for transferring a sorts of files from Microsoft Word to Mp3 files and even Films. DVD's were a really big deal in the late 90's - early 2000's because it was the new big thing after the floppy disks. I used to use them to put my power point presentations on them for school and also whenever I went over to my cousins house I would copy & paste all of the latest movies on to my DVD.
DVD's have so many different features, but the feature that is most used is 'burn'. Burning to disc is when you want to watch a movie on your DVD Player that you have on your DVD. It's a very easy and simple feature to use, there is one downside to burning your DVD and it's that you can't use it again to burn or transfer files.
To rap this up DVD's are great but are unfortunately dying out with not only a better invention that came out a couple of years ago called 'USB' which can be as small as your finger tip and have up to 32gb of memory (DVD's have a maximum of 4.70gb) but also because of the 'Internet'. Nowadays people no longer need to worry about forgetting there DVD or USB at home because you can just store it online with websites like YouTube, Hotmail, G-mail and Dropbox. The only future I see for DVD's is in stores like HMV and GAME and unfortunately that won't last long as people have already started to buy there songs online for websites like iTunes and games will soon be bought online. I feel bad adding another negative to this list but it's a classic that we all know, once you scratch a DVD's or any disc it's damaged and has no further use.
Rest in Peace Digital Versatile Disc
