this is the real question. fuck having to be careful with your music, i want to be able to toss my music collection around, and both cassettes and ipods can do that. old cassette wear and tear beats vinyl pops and clicks any day. that ethereal fade in and out, with slight pitch bend... delicious. with mp3s you get cd quality digital sound but hundreds of times the storage. discusss. |

tape feels lovely. is it the compression n stuff i dunno. not being able to skip tracks leaves you more appreciative. ugh im tired |

tape was my most used format back when i was growing up, so it holds a certain kind of reverence. i still have a lot of tapes and they have a characteristic "sound" which is totally lost when i heard the studio/cd versions later. even the vinyl versions don't sound the same. for some tracks, tape just rules. still, i'd have mp3 anyday just for convenience. quite tricky finding a tape deck outside of a carboot sale these days! |

mp3s. cassette players ate way too many tapes. even if you untangled it and rolled it back up tight with a pencil, the damage was done and that part of the song will always be fucked up. |

mp3 sounds so fucking crusty. tape sounds like it loves your ears. |

tape what would this life be with out reliving your hazy rave memories from a 12 pack cassette box set. and as i said befor, that feeling of jamming em into the cassette slot. plus ipods are the devils work. at least use a non generic mp3s playing device not a slice of hell. ps hows the non smoking goin amps? |

cant wait to get the forthcoming cassette by russell haswell. i like cassette mainly out of nostalgia + its not that fragile, you cant skip tracks so it did cure my impatience so its better for albums. but i dont really miss it. would love to get a nice cassette player (not that crappy walkman i keep on using). |

mp3 cause i would need another house to fit all this music on cassette tape. yeah you need a good player for cassette. |

i had a plastic bag with about 50 home made tapes in which i used to lug between mates cars. One day one of said mates pulled a tape out which only had two words written on it. Rough on one side and smooth on the other. In it went, smooth side first. Walking on sunshine by katrina and the waves starts blasting out at full volume. No one except me is impressed. It gets turned off in around 20 seconds and we wait a couple of minutes in silence as the tape fast forwards so we can check out the rough side. A short gurgle and then walking on sunshine erupts again. In a fit of rage my mate chucks first the tape and then the whole plastic bag out of the window and we carry on driving. I dont think ill ever fully forgive him. |

I could maybe understand him chucking the one tape, but the whole bag? Pretty harshly out of line, that. |

128kbps (and lower) mp3's sometimes sound like my old tapes, papery sounding tops and distorted bass. It ain't the same thing of course. |

why not store your mp3s as data on tapes? PROBLEM SOLVED |

fair dues. you can grow a tree, its easier to do from cuttings rather than seed, go find a willow tree come spring carefully cut a branch off, try not to tear the bark, then jus jam the stick in the ground, end u cut in the earth, give it some water and theres a good chance it will root and grow. voila one hand made ampi-tree. |

If you listened to cassetes on walkmans they usually had the bass expansion switch plus the overal sound was very soft and muffled, you can have everything if you're get some reel to reel, very good alternative to vinyl indeed. |
