Pretty good. They're fun.

I sold my CD's ages ago due to space and I prefer having physical media so I'm happy that they're coming back. They're cheaper than vinyl and easier to store than CD's. I'm hoping more albums get re-issued on cassette in the near future and that better players are manufactured.

I like to hold them in my hands

They should've never been discontinued in the first place. Portable CD players were a fucking terrible idea and MP3 players turned out to be a complete waste of time in the end. Phone streaming can fuck off.

I think this type of physical media deserves the resurgence in popularity. CD's are too wide and difficult to carry places, not to mention the bulkiness of one of those players. Cassette tapes on the other hand are very portable and you can fit them in your pocket; making these one of the best portable music formats on the market. Sure, the quality on most tapes is nerfed, but I still think it's one of the best options for physical music on the go.

Really disappointed by modern duplication houses. No care at all. That's assuming they even use one. I bought one tape recently that sounded like it was a high-speed dub on a cheap, worn-out dual-well deck.

I posted some tape rips in the last sharethread. Compare the Jonwayne tape to the Japanese tapes from the late 90s. That's not even the golden era of cassette.
