Consider cost please. DVDs are a few cents each. From what I've seen 16
Gb is the smallest thumb drive available now and they are fading fast.
Even in lot quantity they are between $6 an d $10 each.
I know they can be reused a few times before they start having retention
problems, but there is also the issue of loss.
Have a Great Day!
