I still have my Dad's collection of Eight-Track Cassettes from the early Seventies.
Any enthusiasts who still use them?
I don't have one but I do have a cassette player as well as vinyl and CD players. I collect all Taylor Swift memorabilia and when she started releasing casters cassette and vinyl I bit the bullet and bought both players.
It's a different sound and a different experience but I do enjoy both.
I never stopped using tape ( I listen to audiobooks a lot)
Vinyl is an all together different experience.
Massive disc huge cover art and when you put a disc on you re committed to at least 30 to 45 min of continuous music with no skipping, or fats forwarding.
I need to be in the mood for that.
But color vinyl is cool.
I like vinyl for the experience, and cd's for ease of use.
Well ripping cd to mp3 and listening to those.
I like all of them. Vinyl is probably my fave though, I like the different variations you can get like the different colours, sleeves and covers.
Then again you can get some really cool CDs as well. I own a massive collection of CDs and I like how easy they are, just play and then you're good for the next 40-60 mins.
I'm listening to a vinyl at the moment... Fleetwood Mac.
