My 1980's car has the original plastic cassette rack still fitted, and my iPhone has a rubber cover that disguises it as a C90.
For once, I am bang up to date! |

Oh noooooo! Those bad old days of tangles, sticking, stretching, and print-through
I'm all for nostalgia and tradition, but audio cassettes?.....I'd never go back. |

I spent a large part of the days around New Years Eve to digitize most of my MCs (mostly word comedy off the radio from throughout the 90ies til 2006). Not a single one sounded bad. I was quite amazed that they have aged so well. They were in a cardboard box in a cupboard and I definitly used MCs til 2006, according to the dates on them.
MCs seem to age well - but the rubber bands inside recorders don´t.
Recording or buying them new now? I don´t know. They are still being sold in supermarkets here. |

I always hated those things except for the ability to record. Mind you I still have a few Decks around and I would bet I have forty of more Tapes at the Cottage now.
They were quite a bit better than these though:

I don't get the claims that analogue is superior to digital. I am in the slow process of digitizing a stack of vinyl and cassettes going back to the 70s. The most arduous part is removing the hiss and distortion from the cassettes, and the cracks, pops, and clicks from the vinyl. I understand that some people, for reasons that escape me, consider those things charming. |

I'm way ahead of you Roy, my old 80's car still has the original radio with cassette player. I've got some ancient cassette tapes in my car which have survived more then twenty years of sitting in various cars, in heat and cold, but still producing sound.
I remember the good old days when i was sitting at my radio cassette player, taping songs from the radio, getting annoyed by the dj talking too long at the intro, and starting talking before the song ended. |

Oh the cassettes!
I remember them too, when I got my first walkman and then it disappeared Wish I still had it.
I suddenly feel older when my younger siblings see a vinyl and ask what DVD is that
But I still should have one of these bad boys at home

I wish I'd taken photos (but you only got 24 pics on a roll of film then) but back in the Dark Ages I had a battery powered casette player bungeed to the petrol tank of my AJS 250cc motorbike, and a jackplug connected to an earpiece in my helmet.
It worked well, but I kept ripping the wire out by forgetting to unplug it when I got off the 'bike.
Before we could burn CD's it was the preferred option for piracy - my brother in law had all of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, taped off the radio, on cassette. |

So I was at the Cottage for a bit today and attempted to take a shot of my tape collection when then went for a tumble. For some reason Stompin' Tom landed right side up:
