I was happily listening to some anthems on YT when the 'next' video came up as "The most expensive music format (in the world)", only posted last month, in which Techmoan reviews the possibility of a Tape format revival. Why does YT presume to know what I might like? - anyway I was interested.

He makes several points of interest to us here, such as the progressive reduction in achievable quality from the 50s to the 80s, the high cost of media and players, and the silly-money prices for the new generation of high-end tapes and refurbished players.

He shows a few tapes which we will surely have some of here, and plays an early demo tape which sadly we don't have. Other topics covered include equalisation standards, Analog Records products, and the abandoned Revox new player project.
