Re: "Just exploring going back to cassette tapes as a useful..."
@norayr I grew up doing the same. TI-99 used a tape deck for the storage medium. I do keep some blacnk CD's around but I'm more inclined towards USB drives or CD when it comes to computer now. I haven't bought a CD for music in ages, and apart from a few older computers don't have a CD player anymore. It was THE thing when I lived in Prague in 2000. Having a Diskman clone on the trams made the city even more enjoyable. Then again back then you could tell an American on a tram because our cell phones didn't largly have ringtone support. If you heard a Nokia ring instead of U2's All that You Can't Leave Behind odds were good!

Just exploring going back to cassette tapes as a useful medium. Never thought I'd be doing that having been at the tail end of the 8-track till today's streaming but I want to own my music again and I like the ease of use and low expense of it. Anyone else looked back at the cassette?
