Cd-roms
CD-ROMs were introduced to the market in 1985 and were an instant hit. They were initially used to store large amounts of data, but eventually became a popular way to distribute software. CD-ROMs were also used to store images, music, and video.
The first CD-ROMs were about the size of a standard audio cassette and could store up to 650 megabytes of data. They were popular among businesses and government agencies because they could store large amounts of data. In 1992, the CD-ROM became a popular way to distribute software. Many software publishers began releasing their software on CD-ROMs because they were cheaper to produce and could hold more data than floppy disks.
In the early 1990s, CD-ROMs were also used to store images, music, and video. They were especially popular among computer enthusiasts because they could store more data than floppy disks. CD-ROMs could also store high-resolution images and sound quality that was superior to that of floppy disks.
By the mid-1990s, CD-ROMs had largely replaced floppy disks as the primary means of storing data on personal computers. They were also used to store data on game consoles and portable devices. CD-ROMs are still in use today, but they have been largely replaced by digital downloads and cloud storage.
