To be fair, it also does MP3s. But cassettes, in 2017? ! 😀

Hipsters or Starlord to blame?

Loads of new releases on cassettes. They may be shit, but there's somewhat of a resurgence.

I love that, I saw it in the book yesterday. I don't need one, but I'm tempted by one for the garage.

Got some Glen Marnoch Sherry Cask though. Hope it's as good as the last one. I wouldn't be surprised if it's not some sell of from the Bladnoch distillery.

That's amusing, because directly after you posted it here I reposted it to a Spectrum group.

Can you make an MP3-tape, kind of like mp3-cds? 45 minutes of dah-dit dah- dititititititiititititii to load your song.

Lots of Indy/folky type artists are doing cassettes again, I don't think Half Man Half Biscuit have ever stopped!
I had a little Aiwa one rather like that that could record in stereo, it sounded pretty good, or at least it flattered the format... 😀
I see it does record, got SW as well as MW and FM, pity it hasn't got DAB, I'd have snapped one up.

Really cassettes what next Minidisc and 8 track.

Always thought shellac had a warmer sound 8) Wax cylinder was rubbish though.
