This two-page-paper will discuss the invention and use of the hot new CD burners that are available on the market today. These machines are designed to do nothing more than pirate software. With one of these burners one can take a copy of Windows or any other application and make a CD of their own to use. They can copy music CD's for their friends and they can take entire programs and make sellable CDs at a cheaper rate than the stores would charge. 2 pgs. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
