Funny, but shouldn't it be cassette versus mp3?

No, some middle schoolers today told me the iPod is something different than an mp3 player

I constantly listened to cassettes up until a few months ago!

Heheh, first time I've seen that!

Cassettes aren't actually all that bad, it's just so much effort recording your own stuff on them, real time recording just doesn't cut it any longer...especially with 100+ hours of music

I actually love my cassettes and record them on a Nakimichi 600 "wedge",something alos that would have to be taken at gunpoint and even then the outcome would be in question

In my "ride" it is cassette and FM,no CD,no MP3,no "lossy compression" formats just 1:1 copies of my LPs on analog tape and even if the tape itself craps out i just make another copy.I have no use for "180 hours" of anything and especially not music which I either listen to randomly on the radio or choose one disc at a time to kill off just slightly less than an hour of my life.

BTW-just visited the "wired" link.

I stopped visiting that site about five years ago (

) because it was so "busy" with all the website gone mad FX I could not stand it but I see they got with the frikin program and cleaned the joint up so somewhat normal folks could bounce in too without leaving with a damn headache.

But even if MP3 music sounds lame, as long as it's recognizable in form, free, and shareable, it's here to stay. It will get better as more sophisticated methods of replication emerge. For now, its clunk is glamorized by celebrity iTunes playlists. ITunes has become the Hallmark card of mix tapes - all you gotta do is sign your name to personalize it.

That was awesome >=D

In efforts to add something new to this 'repost', lets see pictures of your portable cassette rig? (I'll post mine in a few hours)

i don't get it.

most of those comparisons don't make any sense...it would be ok if they were funny, but i didn't think they were.

hmmm...
