On reflection, I like it - it's weird. Old internet weird. Like someone with a couple hundred bucks and some time on their hands wants to do something they think is fun or funny... it feels human. I think we need more of this. Extra points for using a sketchy o365 form that looks like a scam.
Rather concerned that there's exactly two comments noticing this. I immediately was like "um, it's an Office 365 form, are people this gullible". EDIT: Fortunately a few more people getting it now.

This seems quite limited to be a real product, but also quite a lot for seemingly what’s just a joke to mock Sony for ceasing blu-ray production.
It’s worth mentioning that github does (did?) do some cool stuff with physical media archiving of code like the arctic project [1], but these CDs are burned, not pressed so they’ll only last around 10 years
Awesome! It is indeed a marvelous merchandize concept! An effortful work of ingenious ideas and great history... sealed in a iridescent CD and signed by a supportive holder of it on public...
Thank you, for an awesome, relatively ingenious idea to preserve the history and highlight its significance in a human history, the love for discoveries and cooperation...

Maybe I'm the dingus but, just not good vibes. Apparently it's probably "fine": https://x.com/github/status/2072801888525840476
Shout-out to the downvoters, may you continue filling MS Forms blindly, eat your hearts out.

Want your 200gb game shipped on 300-400 CDs? Just pay postage & handling ;)
It's presented as an official Microsoft product (the link), but it's just a random public-facing form hosted on Microsoft Forms from Joe Schmoe.
