It won't be long before there won't be any premium cassette tape made and the cassette will go back to its origins of being a portable recorder for dictation and for recording student lectures.Its already happened. The big retail stores now carry only normal bias tapes. Two years ago, I bought high-bias tapes at Best Buy... not anymore.
Electronics are also changing. I recently bought a new Walkman to replace a 10 year old one, and discovered the new model (Sony WM-FX495), while otherwise feature-rich, lacks a tape selector. It won't properly play high-bias tapes!
Sigh.
