The least they could do is say that they burned a copy/blank or ripped the original instead of mixing it up and saying that the original was burned. It makes it sound like they were writing to the original.
Well, apparently lots of people here who are familiar with ripping and burning CDs found it confusing - so I don’t think it’s dumb to point out the confusing wording, especially to clarify for those who don’t know that burning means writing and ripping means reading. I at least initially recoiled in horror at the thought of burning data onto the rare find.
If you’re going to use technical jargon, use the correct jargon. Either that or get back to your job in middle-management, synergising the whatever meaningless buzzwords.
If you think the phrase the entire world uses to copy files onto a disc is technical synergizing jargon, there is no hope for you. I feel like I walked into dunceville with these replies.
Most people haven’t messed about with writeable media in a decade. The only people still talking about this stuff are pedantic nerds. You’re on Lemmy, for gods’ sakes, and you’re expecting something other than pedantic nerds.
Someone gave me some advice recently, perhaps you could also benefit from it: grow up.

What does it matter? Everyone that understands context understood exactly what they meant.
This is dumb.

Do you even talk to people in person?
The entire world? What are you on?

Inability to read confirmed yet again. Good job Sunshine. Bye now.
You were needlessly unpleasant to me, I’m merely returning the favour.
Give it a rest, holy shit. You don’t have anything else to do but “argue” about this completely useless nitpick?
Something that supposedly doesn’t bother you causes this reaction? That’s hilarious.
