When I read the sentence, I was like "Wh... w... how? WHY? ...and OF COURSE it was distributed via FTP, I mean, what else do you use for entertainment in AIX. Or business, for that matter."

I think the LaserActive and MegaLD/LD-ROM system was at least as obscure, there may have even been less units made and the cost was certainly much more, plus there weren't exactly many games released on laserdisc.
The Bandai Pippin also only sold half as many as the LaserActive.
