I remember being the first person anyone knew who had a deck to deck burner, it was a Teac, TDK, or a Kenwood, don’t remember that well. I didn’t have a computer of my own at the time and was bootlegging discs for all of the people in my friends group. Everyone would bring their own spindle of blank discs and we would drink and swap discs until we either went out to go party or until everyone had copies of what they wanted. Eventually I got a few more burner decks to make things quicker, and then I sold off the extra decks to friends before moving away. Not too long after the devices were completely useless as everyone started having a burner built into their PC and just about everyone soon had a PC, still sold my last burner deck for more than I bought it for.
I didn’t have a deck to deck, but somehow managed to convince my mom to buy me a bay mounted burner when they very first were hitting stores. There was a local video rental shop, that also rented out PC games for like $2 ea. I copied as many of those suckers as I could convince my parents to rent me over the course of that summer.
