My mom had a collection of them, including some Raffi, and old "Christmas Americana". Haven't been used in a while, but still usable with the radios we have, not to mention my mom is looking for a tape drive.

Each stack goes... seven deep.
I also have at least 400 VHS tapes, and a VCR that finally malfunctioned last year. {:(
(Oh yeah, that Lionking thing in top left corner seems to be an ancient pack of paper tissues used for padding. >.>)

Thanks for reading,

Really? Even when I was little my family didn't have many Cassette tapes (thoguh that was probably since they moved and such) and we didnt have many CD's either

so... when the Mp3 revolution came I had no legacyequipment lying around .. so I pretty much hopped onto  Mp3 Players..

I remember helping out in primary school when we had concerts and such with the tape decks for practicing singing with songs... Boy was that annoying trying to rewind to get to a particular song X3, I  think I Don't miss that ]:P

PAH! Being annoyed with such a simple task... for shame, Kai. [:P


Also, good luck on getting a new VCR, Tvorsk!

Hmm... come to think of it, I made tons of stupid audio cassette recordings when I was ten that were basically monologues of the most random crap imaginable.  I should really find these things :/

You totally need to transcribe those to Mp3 and upload them ];)

I used to have a massive collection of old cassette tapes of music, and old movies, and various other stuff. Sadly all gone because my family thinks anything not useful is hoarding.  [:(

On a side note: Old school will never die! I commend you guys for actually having stuff like that still.  [:P

My family has a big bunch of them, but sadly, no way to play them. T_T

It gets so lonely being evil
What I'd do to see a smile
Even for a little while
And no one loves you when you're evil
I'm lying through my teeth!
Your tears are all the company I need
