audio tape cassette. There's an amazing range of designs, starting from the early 60's functional cassette designs, moving through the colourful playfulness of the 70's audio tapes to amazing shape variations during the 80's and 90's.

I never realised CDs had any charm, whatsoever. Lets not forget whilst CD-Rs may be a disposable substitute, they're widely a disposable substitute for the 'most disposable of formats'; CD's. I'd never really have anything on CD-R unless I had it or will have it on vinyl or cassette. |
It's music. Who gives a shit what format it's on. Just enjoy sound.
|
I think the idea of any format having charm is full of shit. Fuck your hipster nostalgia (or self-trained retro-nostalgia).
|
tapes got charm. even the look of em is charming

I understand the way you feel, in a way, but not to that extent. And yes, tapes have a hell of a lot of charm. Coloured vinyl does, too, in a very different way. |
God I sometimes feel you guys don't care about music anymore.
|
cd-r releases can be good; i've gotten vinyl releases that look ten times shittier than the shittiest cd-r releases i've ever had.
i wo't dignify answering "omg!! i hate burnt mp3s, like wtf?" because it's stupid. |

A lot of people on this board have been like that for a while. It's sad. |
I know, atsonic, I mean I don't have the best taste in music. However I like anything will listen to anything, whether it be Techno(current) rock, jazz, noise, pop, rap, etc... Music is music enjoy it whatever forms it comes from.

Do you also refuse to drink out of styrofoam cups?
|
^^
ok, I think here is a gap between people JUST listening to music and people who are also COLLECTORS when it comes to music.... and yes I wouldnt want to ruin a splendid scotch whiskey with drinkin it out of a styrofoam cup, of course not |
i have shifted, since i stopped working and started studying from a material collector to an aural collector.
i dont have the funds to buyt that many cds anymore, but i constantly listen to music. and i must say after a while you sopt missing the physicalness of a release and start enjoying the music for what it is, music, with no preconceptions based on packaging and record label... i still love buying music, but i dont always have the funds |
have you guys not yet realised that all CDs suck, CD-R or otherwise?
|
same goes for me. I am a student and can just buy a couple of cds from time to time, but I like to spend my money for that, I really enjoy it, I never wanted to say that listening to mp3s is bad or something, its just that if I can afford it I will buy it (same with the whiskey)
