Maybe you have a lot of old cassette tapes with great music laying around, but no device where you listen to them. Here’s your chance to change this.
The USB Cassette Deck ($198) lets you convert those tapes into MP3 files, giving you the chance to enjoy the music on your computer or portable audio player. Simply plug the double tape deck into the computer’s USB port and you are ready to start converting.
Do you still have a lot of good music on cassettes and vinyl, but no device to play it on? The Instant Music Vinyl & Cassette Ripper ($82) will make it easy to convert your records and cassettes into crisp, clear digital audio (MP3, WAV, WMA and AAC). The Nero CD burning software is also included in the price.
I’m sure most of you have already seen the cool Cassette Tote Bag – it was featured in many blogs some months ago.
It’s been very hard to get it outside the U.S. though. Hence this entry. The good news is that it’s now possible to order the Cassette Tape Handbag ($15) from Baron Bob, where it in the FAQ says: We now ship internationally.
Congrats retro lovers!
These awesome Tape Dispensers ($25) will start shipping in September, but can already be pre-ordered from j-me – a UK design site run by two brothers.
The j-me tape dispenser uses two different objects that use the word ‘tape’ in different contexts. The fusion of music recording tape and sticky tape results in a piece of stationary lovers of retro iconography should not be without.Mmade of rubber, it uses this advantage to be weighty and non-slip. ‘Small core’ tape is easily installed, changed and cut on the metal cutting blade mounted in the top corner.
- Non-slip
- Hard rubber
- Holds ’small core’ tape (19mm x 33m)
- Product dimensions: 90 x 140 x 37 mm
