If I ever become rich, I'm gonna start a factory to make laserdiscs.

If I ever become rich, I'm gonna start a factory to make laserdiscs. And also cd-roms. I want a 12"/30cm data disc, damn it.
(yes they'll also make floppies but I figured that was obvious)
-
@foone I still wonder if one of those combo DVD/laserdisk players would happily play a 12” dvd
-
@cinebox nah. They use different lasers.
-
@foone at least one model has both lasers on the same carriage mechanism. If the software doesn’t hardcode it to stop reading a DVD at the 5¼” mark it would just keep going
-
@cinebox could probably hack the firmware then.
-
@foone A way to make LDs again is the only thing I've ever wanted
-
@foone I want a hifi analog audio disc like the original laserdisc audio tracks but using Blu-ray lasers
-
@thomasjwebb yes!
-
@foone I daydreamed about this the other day:
-
@thomasjwebb ooh, a new fully analog format would be fun. You could stuff incredible resolution into an analog Blu-ray! And then make it the size of a laserdisc for even more resolution!
