I'm 31 and used cassettes, vinyl records, even 8-tracks and never even owned a CD player until they made MP3 CD players and I don't get it.
I routinely spliced and repaired my own tapes even when I was 7 years old and learned the value of backing them up (I had dupes of all my kid tapes). I labeled my blank cassettes with a pen. I recall that I may have wound them with a pen once in a blue moon, but that's only when something was wrong (tape "eaten" by the player/recorder) and, even then, I often just used my fingers. That's not what this is referring to, is it? If so, that's kinda dumb because it was hardly universal.
Yes that's what they are referring to. I must not be universal cause I never played tapes and frankly tapes were before my time for the most part but I got it right away.
