I still don't get this. The reasons they give for gravitating toward tapes are the same as CDs, right? A physical product. It's not like tapes are the portability equivalent of vinyl, in terms of sound. It's like having a limited edition version of the album, makes you feel connected to the recording? Sheesh. People will buy anything if it's marketed, I guess.

I'm imagining the people buying these are the same people who 10 years ago laughed at their friends for buying a CD and said "A CD? Ha! Nobody buys a copy of a disc anymore...digital is where it's at! I just download it to my iPod and I'm good to go! IT'S THE COOLEST! (read in the Billy Madison voice when talking about peeing your pants)"
