If the seller has a few “worthless” diskettes laying around, he can
include one in each case and now the package qualifies under media mail
rates. I won’t speak to the ethics of it, but it is technically
allowed per USPS’ rules.
According to USPS, that is not acceptable for blank, nor even user-written
diskettes.
However, AOL disks would be acceptable!

When did AOL send out 8" disks?
The box does not have to be packed full. A single CD-ROM or 3.5" disk in
each box for 10 8" is OK.
