am I just a Luddite for preferring liveCD/DVDs to liveUSB?
by newbiesforever from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5FVZP)
I'm using a USB drive for my live medium because I'm out of DVDs. But I'm going to buy more DVDs as soon as I get around to it, because I trust optical discs more. When I abandon an installation of my distro because I have found subtle errors that shouldn't be happening, it tends to be one that came from a liveUSB. Am I wrong to think USB drives are more complex; and between that and the layer of complexity added by a liveUSB-making program, there is more that could go wrong?
