    Honestly no one cares that you collect and listen to metal on tape or vinyl.
    I recently met a 21 metalhead bragging to me about how its one of the "truest" forms to listen to metal.
    I told him I'm 31 and left that technology in 1998.

    Honestly I feel like the Metal community in the States is toxic. I guess I am a victim of elitism. Its funny I used to be like that on here when i first started posting here 12 years ago! I get why people called me out on this forum now for how elitist I was and I apologize. I personally dont care anymore because the energy is just not worth it.

    I love records and cassettes as I think analogue sounds the nicest :)

    The only METAL I have on cassette is Metallicas first album from 1983... Its a poland release...

    NO DOLBY and it sounds goregous!!!! -- Like they left it analogue... Its warm and sounds super!!

    I would say thats thier BEST album thier first!!
     
  3. I personally still like music on cassette but I don't have many left to hear anymore. I still love my Onkyo cassette deck and it's part of my system to this day.

    I don’t have any metal on vinyl, but I do have lots of other things.

    To each his or her own, no?

    Dunno about that, but I think pot's a whole lot less satisfying if it hasn't been cleaned on a really cool album cover.

    Times have moved on, records, tapes, video tapes, all that stuff takes up too much room, I don’t see why when you can have it all on a device at the touch of a button.
