I don't think he is ignorant - he just makes and sells those products.  
Inventors, headquarters and forum are here:

And here:

http://torlus.com/floppy/

Number of supported musical instruments is growing and there's good  
support from their side.

Of course there are more products like this, just use Google. Here is  
some Estonian product:

There are even cheaper options of Chinese origin, but I personally  
would avoid them as I don't trust cheap Chinese crap. For example Gotek:

I'm sure there will be more and more similar products as floppy disks  
will become not only out of fashion, but out of use and out of  
production. Old FDD would have problems and many users of older  
instruments would need to change them for modern electronic solution  
without complex mechanics and moving parts...
