8- track tapes are back!

For years, these former staples of the car (and home) stereo were thought to be forgotten in the dustbin of most Americans. But now, in the wake of the vinyl revival and Record Store Day, there is an “eight track day” (April 11), and there are talks of manafacturing plants opening up again. Even car companies are considering installing 8- track decks in place of the now- dominant CD player, as that has become a download, MP3 kind of thing.., can the cassette or even reel to reel be far behind ?
