Correct spelling - Disc or Disk?
Q:
How do you spell disque in English?, is it disc or disk?

A:
In the US it is disk and in
the UK and everywhere else it is disc. This is complicated a bit by
some vinyl enthisiasts who insist that their flat black recordings be
called discs. The diskette that was once very popular was abbreviated
to disk. To further complicate things the CD when it was developed
together by Phillips and Sony was described as The Compact Disc. So now
you know -- David Martin Edmunds Oct
