I mean with old 8-tracks, cassette tapes, now more recently VHS? I've got a butt load of cassette tapes. Haven't touched them in years. Everytime I go to throw them out finally my husband talks me into keeping them.

is weeping uncontrollably an option?
I've got some cassette tapes and I have the same problem, although my car still has a cassette player and I could listen to some of them while I'm driving. I just don't do that.

It's probably safe to discard the 8-tracks...I don't think they will be coming back

Our older mini van just has a cassette player, and I popped in "The River" by the boss..needless to say, it was our own recorded version, straight from the turntable...the static was almost unbearble!

Hey, if it makes you feel any better, I still have a walkman with a cassette player. And I actually wish that I had kept all of my old "albums" .
