recording CDs

It amuses me that "coaster" seems to be the universally-accepted term for a failed CD burn.

I never called floppies coasters. Must be some weird Aussie thing.

Apparently so. Failed floppies only, but we always had a stack of those ("we" being when I was living with my step-brother, so ... 90/91, maybe 92), and we'd certainly use them as coasters. And, in fact, write "coaster" on them so we knew.
