Your right Don. In fact I have some Memorex disks also that I purchased at Target. They are especially bad.
To Gary; How true. Lesson learned. No more cheapies for me.
To ChicoBrasil; Your absolutely right Chico. I make it a point to keep my floppy disks away from my Floor Standing speakers. Although people should know (if they don't already) that they should also keep them away from Computer Monitors "especially when you Degauss it". Also realize that most of your Computer Speakers, ie., Altec Lansing' Ultimate 621's, etc., have Magnetic Sheilding that will protect them from causing interference and from damaging Floppy disks. I believe even the speakers on todays Keyboards, ie., PSR 2000 etc., are Magnetically Sheilded to protect the Keyboards circuitry, etc., although DON'T use a cell phone near your Keyboard. If a call comes in it can cause interference with your keyboard, ie., "possible unwanted noise" that could emanate from the speakers or headphones. This can especially be a nuisance when Gigging.
Best regards,
Mike
