Tapeville is alive and well just not verry active. In case anyone is looking for blank cassettes they are still available on amazon.

I'd hate to see this ist go away; reels, cassettes and carts are a big part of audio history and shouldn't just be junked. P.S.: Anybody know of a good or just decent USB cassette deck? They do exist, but haven't seen one in a long while. -- "Hope laid upon hope, that this crowd will not subside..." [Dave Matthews] Regards, Max.
