Just for the record:

my taped-up "PC floppy diskettes" (basically High Density 2MB unformatted capacity diskettes), have been working great for over 10-12 years (don't remember exact date I did a final write on them). Many of them include games, which are obviously used every time the game is played. Suffice to say:  plenty!

YMMV (like my case) but *technically*, yes, they are not as reliable.

PS. HopperJF, your blog link "no-worky" :-(
