Yeah I hate when people bring that up - by the time Windows (and hence the PC GUI) was becoming mainstream, you had to have a hard drive to run it, which was where most people saved their documents anyways.
It's the same thing with copy and paste icons, which make no sense for an MP3 editing app either.
As long as they are the same everywhere, it doesn't matter. Its the consistency, either in appearance, or in meme (eg. this floppy icon looks different, but I know its a floppy, so its save), that counts.
