      WTF for? I can sort of understand vinyl. By any objective measurement it doesn't reproduce sounds as well as CD, but it sounds different in a way that's pleasing to a lot of people. But cassettes? Anyone who wants to listen to cassettes doesn't remember how crappy the sound was.https://twitter.com/ThatEricAlper/status/1063590103942144000 …

      Crosley is primed to take the next step beyond vinyl. The company announced this week that they’ve launched two new cassette players—the CT100 and CT200—the first-ever cassette players that the company has ever manufactured. pic.twitter.com/Fm2byIJojG

      The one thing that was superior about tapes for a while (when CDs were a thing but before digital had taken over) was being able to pause at a specific place in an audiobook. CDs actually sucked for that.

      Cassettes were fine for voice, except for the jams. They sucked for music. And I say this as someone who bought a lot of blank tapes to record friend's albums.

      Yeah, I used to do that too, as a young kid. Plus mix tapes, taping songs from the radio. By the time I was in 5th grade or so our computer had a CD recorder, though.

      I was fucking awesome at constructing mix tapes back in the day.

          Same. My old Dell that I had all through grad school actually had a CD recorder, so I would make CDs for my friends on birthdays and stuff. Miss doing that. A Spotify playlist or whatever just isn’t the same.

          I had a pretty sweet stereo set up the last couple years I was in grad school, and a record player as well. Gift to myself after I passed prelims. It’s still at a friend’s place in Ann Arbor, though; not much use until I move out again.

          “Happy birthday, I made you a mixtape and I got you a Little Mermaid tumbler.” (The tumbler was much beloved, actually. Sentimental in-joke.)
