I remain bemused as to why tapes seem to be making a comeback.
Vinyl records I get, they're nice things to handle. These things were fiddly, broke easily and had shit sound quality even when they were the peak of technology.

Vinyl lathes are quite a lot more expensive than a tape deck.
In 2026 quite a lot of everything sounds blandly similar to everything else.
