A friend of mine got one of those cool little programs that lets you record tapes onto your computer. He spent $70 on the thing, which I guess was cool in his mind. He got everything set up, installed the program, and got all the tapes together only to realize his fatal flaw.
He doesn’t have a tape player.
I have a tape player, but only for show. It doesn’t work, but I kept it because it looks cool. I couldn’t eBay it off when I sold the rest of my radio broadcast equipment a few years ago, not that I was surprised.
Well, technically, it DOES work. The problem is the speed is a little fast. There’s nothing like hearing a Bon Jovi song as if the lead singer was Alvin Chipmunk.
I don’t know why I never junked the thing. There are other things I own that I guess I don’t need anymore. I might take stock of that in the next couple weeks and see what I can junk, and what I can salvage.
