@anw probably laserdisc, but minidisk is really cool, too.

@lain LaserDisc is also very cool! I have so many anime from that time, but no player anymore, haha. I heard LD was preferred over DVD by some fans because of lossless audio quality.

@lain And LaserDisc itself is very fancy and pretty.

@anw i love floppy disks! they have such a good design language. i also like cassette tapes, but i... am stubborn and don't consider them 'dead' yet

@dirtycommo Do you mean the big floppy (5.25 inch) or the little floppy (2.5 inch)? The big floppy always felt like magic - something old. Since you like cassette tapes you may like this talk on reel to reel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KHSz9Gi-II
