I haven't used many cassettes lately, but now that I have a BookPort, I'm digitizing some for easy portable listening. I got one today from the Library that I want to read and re-experienced the joys of a semi-functioning cassette, not being able to rewind the tape, trying to fast-forward on the other side with mixed results . . . The cassette was a step in the right direction in terms of portability, but I won't miss them a bit!
