    Ah yeah I grew up on XP too, but it was early enough in my life that I barely remember. I did use the ol’ Windows Media Player for music before Winamp and BS Player (and then later VLC), but I don’t remember what I actually burned CDs with. I do think all my music off LimeWire worked just fine with WMP though, without having to download any codecs. But then at some point I started using iTunes because I had an iPod, maybe that had more codecs bundled with it too.

    Last music CD I burned was in 2015 when I got my first car, a 1992 model with an aftermarket stereo that had a CD slot, and while it also had AUX, 3.5G wasn’t all that great everywhere and I didn’t have a 4G phone yet lol. Me and my then gf made it together so the styles were VERY varied lol, I had shit like Schoolboy Q while she had stuff like Tracy Chapman, it was quite literally a bipolar music CD.
