There must be a reason for the 3 missing though, or to look at it the other way round, why 1 was chosen to signify vinyl, and 4 tape, while omitting the both 2 and 3 until CDs...

...did they anticipate a new format?

(I checked to see if any of these were on minidisc, but nothing)

The minidisc(recordable format) never really took off for commercial music issues, though it was great for radio stations, especially the community sector here in Australia. We put our corporate sponsorship acknowledgment spots and station I.D. spots on them, as well as community notices and any other pre-recorded announcements. The format was great, ready-made for that application. You could move tracks(reallocate them to another track number), title them, edit them to take out gaps and avoid dead-air, and it was dead-easy to use. but for commercial music marketing, Minidisc just never clicked.
