Most Yamaha Disklavier pianos and theater light boards use floppy. I've used usb-to-midi on my electronic piano for a long time, but many owners still use floppy to record and playback. Lots of traffic about floppies on Disklavier boards recently. Also computerized light boards record cues to floppy. Theaters can't afford to replace them so often.
