Yeah, they are promotional CDs, advertising and such....They work just like
full size CDs. Any CD player will play it, the CD player sees it as a
regular CD. All CDs are written from the inside out, so usually alot is
wasted, in this case rather than make a full size CD and waste 2/3 of it,
they make a this 'mini-cd' and believe me it works fine....

Subject: [PCBUILD] Hardware to Cut Mini-CDs?


I've just been handed a mini-CD...literally fits in your palm or shirt
pocket, with two of the rounded edges cut off flat...I've never seen
such a thing, but it plays in a standard CD player.  Has anyone else
ever seen such a thing?  What kind of hardware would support it?  What
would it be called?  (The person who gave it to me had it mailed to him
and knows no other details.)
