One of the most original ideas for releasing music I have heard of, Brighton pop-punk band Corrigan have released a song on floppy disk.The floppy disk contains a song that they promise will never be released on any other format, presented in a hand made box and complete with user manual. The artwork mimics old school PC game boxes perfectly, and is bound to cause nostalgia in anyone old enough to remember when PC games came in massively over sized boxes.
This is exactly the sort of unique idea that more bands need to start coming up with. Just the novelty factor of it is tempting me to buy it, even though I don't care much for the band.
