It's a good question, which has been answered, but another occurred to
me:
how does a cassttte compare to an MP3?



320 kbps MP3 can outperform most casette/player combinations but not all
of them. The MP3s don't wear out however.

Electric guitar (or keyboard) stereo 'phasing' effects sound squish on MP3
or ATRAC (MD) when I'm really concentrating. I still use a cassette
walkman for the gym... I've got over 500 cassettes from the 80's to
re-discover.


Are they ok? I found that many of the old ones loose their magnetic layer
easily, so that you have to clean the heads every few minutes!
All this is not very good for their treble response of course.
