I don't know if I am hallucinating this, or what, but I distinctly remember Microsoft doing two releases of old movie sound samples on sets of 3.5" floppies in the early 90s? 🤔 I can't find any reference to it on the intarwebs. I'm confident it pre-dates CD-ROMs.

@welshtroll @codinghorror $25 in past money for glorified ringtones? What a racket
@petes_bread_eqn_xls @welshtroll tell me about it...
@codinghorror @petes_bread_eqn_xls @welshtroll Well, maybe not so wild when you realize that they has to license Fred Flinstone!
I mean, his signature yells can't be cheap.
And you'll hear it in your head all day and I haven't written it down.
You know his legendary scream in your bones!
25 bucks? For having your Windows PC make you hear Fred Flinstone whenever you minimize a window?
Let's be honest.
Priceless.
