What says "throw me away" this holiday season better than cassette tapes? Some of the tapes were mix tapes that were in such bad shape that I doubt my piddly little tape player would play them. Most of the tapes are from a tape grab a store was having down the street. They were going out of business and were selling them 10 for a dollar. I just got everything that I thought might be remotely listenable. There are still some tapes I want to transfer, but I weeded the herd out a good bit. I mean, what's the point hanging on to tapes? The quality is just going to degrade, plus, nothing that I spend time in has a tape player anyway, and I have most of them on cd or on disk. The one thing that I liked about tapes was making your own mix, and you could throw them around in your car and they'd be fine. Please feel free to have a laugh at my expense when you see what some of the tapes are. :)
