Ok.  I've tried to do this discreetly -  Now I'll ask the world

We have an idea to produce a short promotional title (hopefully)
for the upcoming CDISK conference.  Our idea was to produce the 
CD-I disk on a 3" sized (CD-single) cd.  This would fit easily into
customer pockets and the sleeve would be printed with our business
card.

I find nothing in the green book that prohibits the 3" media and I have
determined that the 3" disks (audio) will play in 910, 605, and 180 
CD-I players (if you use suitable adapters in the 180/605).  I have
also found out that Sony (who introduced/championed) the 3" disc
may have a 3" worm burner but I can find no one who uses one.

Is it possible that a 5.25" worm can be created and during pressing
have the title contents transferred to the smaller media?  Is
it possible to create 3" CD-I discs?
