Also known as a burned copy of Anti on a CD.

Britney Spears, pop culture icon who may or may not be trapped in a time portal, was spotted holding what appears to be a burned copy of Rihanna's Anti on a CD. Which, for those of you who are confused, is that giant metal thing she's clutching.
Questions we have:
1. Is this a Tidal protest?
2. Does Britney still use floppy discs?
3. What year is it?
