olives black posted:Cassettes are the best, and here's why: You can easily back up a CD at excellent fidelity to a file. That's the first thing I do after buying one, before I even play it. With cassettes, if you back up to another cassette you lose significant fidelity and get even more hiss. And when the tape in a cassette eventually breaks in your player, you have a world of poo poo to deal with. Also, cassettes lose sound quality as they age because of stray magnetic fields and oxide particle shedding. You fool, OP, you Luddite, you absolute moron.

olives black posted:CDs are deffo the easiest physical medium to back up. They are also the least fun and FLAC renders them totally pointless. The cover art and the tracks themselves (for rarer stuff) are not always downloadable. Also I like to support the artists when finances allow by buying their releases. Don't let me distract ya from talking cassettes here, OP, I was mainly just riffing (sorry!) and I think it's great that collectors like you are preserving some older technologies and media that would otherwise be quickly lost to time. I'll shut up ITT now.

syntaxfunction posted:... And also honestly I just stream music now. I was with you up until you said this. But if the quality of streamed music satisfies you, you might as well just listen to the sound of your own farts instead.
