That would have had to have been around 1997-1998?
In 1990 single speed Cd Burners were around $10,000 and CD-r were about $50 each.
I bought one of the first Philips 1 x CD Burners in our town. It was almost $700!
That was in July 1997.
Bought my first 1 x Panasonic DVD Burner in May 2000 for $1499! DVD-R discs were about $15? RW disks were about $25?

By comparison the last DVD Burner I bought (2010) was 40x and cost $16! A pack of 50 disks was $10
