It's the difference between "I borrowed some money" and "I loaned someone money". They mean different things, including people occasionally creating awful sentences like "I borrowed him some money" (shudder).
None of that has anything to do with burning a cd.
It's another example of how related words are misused to provide another example. The author of the article decided to use a word they clearly didn't understand. Are you trying to pull some reverse pedantry shit?
Yes. Because pedantry is all you guys are engaging in. Grow up.

Sneer all you like, one of the things I do is fix technical specs for a living. Being a pedantic nerd literally pays my bills.
