I meant to catalogue and list them on Kijiji or Craigs List |

You don't rewind 8 tracks, they are one way but I assume you were trying to make that point. On the other hand there are 4 songs available at any time. If you don't like your music enough to listen to it all, why did you load it on the tape? I agree an MP3 player is preferable to any tape format but this was 1968. Digital sound was just a dream. The only people with computers big enough to actually play an MP3 would have been the government or a big corporation and that computer would weigh 10,000 pounds, filling a pretty good sized room 8 track was a bad design. It relied on the tape slipping as it wound up. So tape was always sliding against tape. |

Anybody want 'em? *If not, I'm going to just chuck 'em. I have a couple Sony Beta cassettes while we are cleaning out old oxide. Not sure what is on them but it is nostalgia. Sorry I gave away the Deep Throat tape they were tossing in on a SL7200 sale in 1975. I use a three head Marantz portable cassette recorder to record the interviews I do for clients. But I have a half case of blank cassettes in my supplies cabinet, so I don't need more. After I do my write-ups, I bulk erase the tapes and reuse them a couple of times. Never liked cassettes for music. In 2008 most people are using electronic memory to record. But then again, it's all a lie anyway......you don't work. |
