Compact Audio Cassettes (ferric, ferro chrome, Chrome and metal) still availble here Welcome to Tapeline! here since 1986 - Tapeline Ltd
Almost everything cassette as well as DAT and other formats audio and video.

Some artists (inc Kylie Minogue) are still releasing on audio cassettes although usually only sold via their websites - retro revival although total annual sales of prerecorded tapes are only in 5 figures

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Plenty of cars from the last decade have a cassette slot on the dashboard.

All my dozens of mixtapes went in the bin a couple of years ago - I kept the inlay cards & have spent many happy hours recreating them from my mp3 collection :D

Don't suppose it came with a stereo microphone did it?

Nice catch regardless. Just the sort of thing that stirs the juices and would make my wife say " What do you want with THAT?"!

My Technics tape player gets some use. The in laws have found a huge pile of tapes, especially those of my wife singing as a child(!) so she's knocking herself out. Not quite the use I had in mind for it but oh well....

No mic. But it did come with a leather case and a NiCad battery from 1978, however that's long past it's best so I will fit new cells in it.
Belt kit on order and going to give it a fresh set of belts and check everything is aligned. Not a spec of dust inside it!
