Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

You could rip the game/movie/media off the cd and store it on your pc?
Currently, my main machine (which has no optical media), has around 12 or 14TB of storage. That machine is currently offline because we're rebuilding our home, so I'm living off my laptop and my SO has an actual PC (although it's kind of old, [and running Windows, per her instructions], it's still a fairly decent machine, with 16GB of RAM, something like 2 or 4 TB of storage (not sure now), a GTX1070 (yes it's old, but it's still a decent card if you're not gaming).
However It's the only machine with an optical drive, or with a plug and play drive interface (you can plug disks on the top of the case, it's really convenient).
External DVD drives are like $30 and external and networked storage are things too
