Cassette decks suck

When I got my books for teaching, I also got a couple of cassettes to go along with the lessons. Wow, I hadn’t really used a cassette deck since the mid 80’s… It is, by far, the most common method of recording and playback here. I think I even saw the same walkman copy that I owned back in ’82 in one of the stores. I went to the Sony store the other day and it was like being in Sam Goodies back in the day, loads of blank cassettes for sale. Anyway, it took me 15 minutes of fast forwarding and rewinding to figure out that I had the wrong cassette for the book. What a pain, give me digital media any day!
