Just because Currys is not selling them anymore doesn't mean their dead yet. I'm sure blank tapes will be manufactured for a while yet.
Actually, I just bought a tape deck because I was starting to get vexed at missing all the stuff that was only coming out on tape.
My feelings about cassettes are mixed. They are clearly an inferior format in terms of sound quality and convenience (all that rewinding and fast forwarding) but they do make you more likely to sit down and listen all the way through which is a plus I think.
