When people ask me: “Why are you into floppy disks today?” the answer is: “Because I forgot to get out of the business.”
Everybody else in the world looked at the future and came to the conclusion that this was a dying industry. Because I’d already bought all my equipment and inventory, I thought I’d just keep this revenue stream. I stuck with it and didn’t try to expand.
Over time, the total number of floppy users has gone down. However, the number of people who provided the product went down even faster.If you look at those two curves, you see that there is a growing market share for the last man standing in the business, and that man is me.
