Do you miss having a cassette player?

TENCHI · 05-02-2006, 11:21 AM

I do admit...there are some tunes that I have on cassette that I would like to hear in my car.

HRC · 05-02-2006, 11:23 AM

I have not missed a cassette player since 1989 or so...

I do miss my records though, just for the sound...

Bimmerista · 05-02-2006, 11:25 AM

Yes I do, especially since the A4 I had previously still had one and I used it regularly to listen to old favorites.

shragon · 05-02-2006, 11:27 AM

hahaha, no. i haven't had a cassette since i don't remember when. i don't even play that many cd's any more. now it's mp3's and sirius.

HRC · 05-02-2006, 11:28 AM

I got what you meant about having one in the car, but really, I haven't missed it for a long long time!

TENCHI · 05-02-2006, 11:30 AM

I had one in my A4....and I didnt really use it...but ever since i got turned onto BMWs....I kinda miss it.

When I bought my 2000 328, I was like....wtf...no cassette???

You could always buy a cassette walkman and plug it into the aux.

I miss the cassette player just about as much as I miss the Crystal Clear Pepsi. It had it's run, but it's over.

Just so you know, your favorite cassette tapes are also available in CD's.

you can take the tapes, and record them into .wav on your computer, and then burn it onto a cd. i did that in the past with a couple of dj mix tapes.

JackMac · 05-02-2006, 12:28 PM

What did you say? I can't hear you over the hisssssssss sound on the tape. Oh wait, push that dolby button.

If you really want to, you can transfer casette to digital format and make MP3.

Barrie · 05-02-2006, 12:35 PM

What happens if you have a cassett of snake sounds (not sure why you would want one), and then turn on the Dolby....reduce the hiss....hmmmmmm

SCA · 05-02-2006, 12:37 PM

I haven't listened to a cassette in 11-12 years.
