After a mostly effortless data retrieval from a borderline abused 3.5” floppy (27 years old), I just found out that I can fit about half an hour of opus encoded audio on a disk. That is amazing!

@rl_dane I've got a 50MB ZIP disk somewhere around here, but no drive. I do remember checking that and the data was garbage. CD's were such a game changer for storage capacity, hard to understand if you didn't live it.

@daniel Wow. So, basically, it is possible to produce floppy music players? Ultra-nerdy device. It could be called FLOP (FLoppy Opus Player).

@rl_dane I think you’re right, I must have misremembered.
