You'd really think that Sony would have figured out that every single storage medium they've ever made has been an utter failure, but Sony is gonna Sony.

This is a little funny in a thread about floppy disks, considering that the extremely popular and ubiquitous 3.5” Micro Floppy Disk was a Sony design ;)

There are also some other Sony formats that actually stuck, like DAT, Minidisc (yes, not so much in the US from what I gather, but it was A Thing in Europe, Australia and Japan) and Betacam.
