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!

+1 to dropping the optical media criterion for Fedora, but I still rip

There are still some systems out there that won't boot off native
USB media and need CD/DVD emulation over USB to work. I don't think
the time is yet ripe to jettison optical media. Soon, but not just yet.
