In recent years, CD-ROMs have become increasingly popular as a mass
storage media. One reason is clearly their large storage capacity; CD-ROM
disks can hold up to 640 MB of data. And because they are randomly

CD-ROMs can also store a large variety of information, including audio and
video data, as well as text files and programs.
