Flexi Discs

Vinyl records maintain a certain level of popularity these days. But I don't think anyone plans on reviving the Flexi Disc, which ceased production in the year 2000.

Visit this great site for a history of this odd phenomenon. Be sure to look at the Flexi Disc stamps from Bhutan!

I don't remember these, but I do remember having vinyl records that were all sorts of different colors. Would be nice if they could do something similar with cds/dvds. Silver is so 1999.

Nethie, Patti, there are colored disks. I had some red ones in the last batch. And yes, I'm talking about the recording side not the top.
