In this advanced era of flash drives and memory cards the data storing concept of a layman has changed a lot. CDs and DVDs were a paradise to store songs, text materials, movies and what not in the late 90s and early 2000s. But, now it moved to USB flash drives and memory cards, specially for the excessive use of smartphones over desktops. Let’s discuss the survival story of CDs in the market of late. Here are some 5 points that speak in favor of CDs and DVDs in order to justify their survival in the market.

Creating portfolios: Doesn’t matter whether you are an artists, musician, filmmaker or a model, you will always find CDs to be the best option to arrange and distribute your portfolio. Even the makers of the portfolio will always find it easier and professional to deliver the finished work to you in a CD. Distributing the same document to a large group: We often buy a lot of books from the market. Some are computer books and some are other technical books (mainly related to science). It is a common fact to find a CD (with some useful resources) either at the beginning of the book or at the very end of the book. Why do the publishers or authors do so? It is because CDs are still the best method to distribute the same type of document to a large number of people. With this simple method, you can reach out to a large number of individuals in the society whom you don’t know at all (not even their name, email, address, phone number). In any seminar, after the session is over we often see that the hosts of that seminar distributes a CD (like a synopsis of all that was discussed) to everyone over there. Professional presence: The professional presence and importance of CDs are beyond words. The biggest advantage of a CD is that no can ever change the data unless it is a re-writable one, which is hardly used in some special scenarios. This is why CDs are highly acceptable as a collection of relevant proofs and documents in the court or in any office subjected to any legal matters. It also looks highly professional when one offers you the data in a CD rather than an USB drive. Keeping the same type of documents: A number of CDs are used by many individuals or offices where each CD is used to keep a special (particular) or similar type of data. This arrangement of multiple data into different groups of storage devices and separating them from one another is best possible in the use of CDs. Special Collection: Be it a Birthday video or a Wedding video, CDs are the best storage mediums to keep these sort of special and heart touching memories safely in your collection. Photographers, sportsmen, artists, actors, singers, musicians also love to keep their work or performances in the CD, categorized accordingly.

So it can be surely concluded that CD is still an important storage device. They are surviving in the market with some of the few companies still offering services like CD Duplication, CD Replication and CD Printing. If we think a bit deep then we will surely understand that, USB flash drives are mainly used either for casual usage or for too much confidential usage. But, CDs can be used in all scenarios. As per the latest market study one can easily find out that the craze or popularity of CDs got deteriorated of late but still they are not yet out of the market.
