Sony have always made strange decisions surrounding storage. Not selling Minidisc as a floppy drive successor, when the competition was gigantic ZIP discs, was a biggie. (I am aware of the NetMD etc, I had one)

They did. MD Data was a thing. It just flopped super hard. It was way too expensive over Zip disc for a minor storage increase and size decrease.

LGR did an Oddware video about it a few years back: https://youtu.be/CzwtCBj5jEs
