B.C. Q&A: What Else Can DVD Burners Burn?

A lot of people seem to get confused when shopping for DVD burners (or looking at new PCs that come with them). It's easy to fall under the misconception that these drives burn DVDs and only DVDs. That's why they call them DVD burners, right? Surprise! They can also burn plain ol' CDs, just like your old CD-RW drive. So, yes, you can still churn out those fabulous music mixes, or just copy big batches of files to cheap CDs for easy transport, backup, etc.
