There seems to be still plenty of refurbs and “new old stock” on the market.

In Japan, convenience stores sold packs of blank floppy diskettes up until around 2015.
Also remember seeing VHS, Hi-8, audio cassette, DAT, mini-DV, MiniDisc… You can still buy a short spindle of CD-Rs and individual DVD+Rs.
