Minidiscs are more common on the other side but they're definitely not bigger, they're only about 2.5 inches across ;-)

A few manufacturers offer them as options but not all. They'll never take over from CD's. I had one for a while and love the format but even in the UK they just ain't popular enough. MP3 and downloads through your aerial is where it's going....
