    Nero burning program used an icon of the colosseum on fire to represent their burn button.

    I see no issue with using a floppy disk.

          Yeah the program, but buddy said the burn BUTTON, that’s a flaming disc for a play on that pun too.

          Two different icons, and OP specified the wrong one.

          That’s the program, the burn button ITSELF is a flaming Disc.
