ALLRIGHT! CALM DOWN, NO NEED TO GET EXCITED!
1960'sTVfan 02-02-2020, 02:28 PM I have a stereo with turntable and cassette deck, also have one of those Crosley stereos that has a CD burner so I still use cassettes and CD's. I have a collection of 45 RPM records, hit songs from the 1970's, I recorded the songs on to cassettes then transferred the cassettes on to CD's. Altogether there are 36 CD's with a total of 440 songs. CD's turned out great and the sound quality is excellent.
OH Nuts! 02-02-2020, 04:53 PM I rarely use either. I have 4 VHS cassettes and about 30 CDs. Everything else on DVD or streamed.
Fleet 02-03-2020, 03:43 PM I have numerous cassettes and VHS tapes.
I use cassettes quite often, in my Sony Walkman device. And my '95 Lincoln Town Car has a cassettes player as part of the radio.
And I run my VCR regularly, about once per week.
Also had CDs. Use those with my Halloween display mainly.
I have 3 CD players that I bought over 10 years ago. They still work great and I have plenty of CD's to play on them. 2 of them have built-in cassette players but I hardly ever listen to cassette's even though I have quite a few of those too. I keep them in the bedrooms. My husband has one of his own in the garage that he listens to when he's out there working.
No. We still have CD's, but they aren't really listened to.
AMackII 02-06-2020, 07:11 PM I don’t because I used to have a Portable Radio/CD Player at the time
Ohio8 02-07-2020, 11:51 PM I still use CDs. I listen to them, upload them to my iMac and laptop, and burn CDs for personal use. I haven't listened to a cassette in at least seven years.
I have an 8 track player. Stashed in the basement. Don’t know if it still works. But it’s there.
Furienna 02-08-2020, 03:47 AM While it now has been a long time since I listened to a cassette or a CD, I used my VCR just a few days ago.
SitcomsHeydayfan 02-08-2020, 01:19 PM I have CDs but don't use them since my CD player is broken. If it was working I'd use them.
We even have some cassette tapes, but those aren’t used anymore.
KurtfromPitts 02-12-2020, 12:07 PM I have a few dozen cassettes and more than a dozen CDs.

Yup and it works beautifully. Basically just TV use it to watch DVDs. And some eps on Antenna TV. Everything else I get from the Internet.
RetroGuy2000 02-16-2020, 01:04 PM I still have a CD player in my vehicle, and a CD player in one room, and I use them still.
MrCleveland 02-17-2020, 10:41 PM I still do...and I even made mix tapes/discs as well.
IllinoisTVFan 02-18-2020, 03:59 PM I still have CDs, cassettes, and vinyl and it varies. Oddly my vinyl I just pulled out of storage and reconnected my turntable. Vinyl is coming back because the sound is cool. I got rid of most of my cassettes but still have a few. I'm in the process of uploading the rare ones (radio shows from the 80's for example) into digital. I have thousands of CDs but the last one I bought was the Greatest Showman (love this one). I usually go to YouTube or Google Music now though.

I won't doubt cassettes...both audio and video will make a comeback since you can store more on these...but they may have problems with losing them in a player...I had this problem yesterday with a video tape...I hope that VCR's come back like how turntables have. ohno:ohno:ohno:

I wonder because cassettes and vhs always got eaten by stereos. I remember listening to a tape and it switched the sides and it was so bizarre. I had them break as did vhs.
