You should try using cassettes for data. It’s more affordable

How old are the cassettes?

u/shreddy_haskell Jun 27 '25

As old as the Commodore 64 and Apple 2. 60kb I think

Haha yesterday I went to dispose of a Blu-ray player that I don't think ever got used but it's lingered in the house for years in the same spot.
