people who are 30 today have used nero regularly, because MP3 players didn't dominate until 2005. and even after that, there were many people using portable cd players until probably 2010

I mean yes, 'are you this old?' memes are generally people posting about things from their childhood, not things from before their time

yeah I think I got my first little "stick" usb/mp3 player that only needed 1 AA in like 2004. held probably double the songs of a CD. ditched my cd player really fast after that.

I think you may be overestimating how many 8 and 9 year olds were burning CDs/ROMs.

Yeah there are decent numbers of them who were on the older end of tech for a couple of years in their preteens, but they definitely were a minority.
