[QUOTE="PoloMint, post: 384808, member: 175235"] Is that the tiny cassettes as used in dictaphones and old answering machines? I've never really used them. I have occasionally used a digital dictaphone - some samsung one that plugged directly into usb after use. I was actually surprised how good the quality was (I was recording someone else - not me) so maybe it depends which one you get. Even if people have stopped making the tiny cassettes, I'm sure there will be new-old stock selling on eBay for some time. I saw some 5 1/4 floppy discs (the really floppy ones) in an actual shop a couple years back, I thought they died a decade ago! [/QUOTE]
