If you miss floppy disks so much and the recycled toys that come from them aren’t enough, give this new and improved version a whirl. It’s actually a CDR in descise, giving the illusion that you haven’t kept up with current technology. When in reality, you just enjoy all of the quirky gadgets and toys that come with new technology.

Unfortunately although it does look cool, it doesn’t quite hold as much. It holds 200MB whereas a normal CDR holds 700MB. I’d say that’s a bit of a jump in storage size.

They are sold with four colored floppy disk labels, each disk sells for $14 and $32 for four of them. Even if it is for a novelty factor the price is still a bit steep for how little storage you receive.
