      How quickly we forget Laserdisc and Video CDs.

      Oh and UMD, but I don’t think “I want to watch a movie in poor quality on a tiny screen on a device that’ll probably run out of battery before the movie finishes” was a market anybody was really interested in.

        Sony minidisc says hi :p

        I remember a time when i was hoping they’ll implement the minidisc as an alternate removerable storage for PC. More robust compared to floppy disks, less delicate compared to CDR, and is rewritable too. LOL

          I remember ripping a CD to one with an optical cable. It split by tracks and everything.
