The problem with coins is that they vary widely in size within any currency, and are very country/trading area specific/limited. The beauty of a CD--for which I would include DVDs & Blue-rays, is they are universal as much as anything is; have a very standardized size, and more than one point of accurate reference--the outer diameter, the inner diameter, the writing around the centre; the thickness. From an artistic point of view, the reflective rear surface opens up any number of possibilities. Hm. This is a silly poll, and yet, we're taking it seriously. It's that coders instinct to want to solve the problem I guess :) Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
