Kevin Prinoski 🇨🇦 @kevinprinoski.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Cassette tapes allowed people to get music for free by taping songs from the radio. Pepperidge Farm remembers the early days of music pirating using the technology of the Brady Bunch. 😅 010
スコット @y2skot.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Loved cassette tapes. But not as much as my big Teac reel-to-reel that played tunes for 8 hours nonstop. Downside: you had to record said tunes for 8+ hours. Mega-mixtape. 010
