There's also a break between songs, always an annoyance, and I've never found broken up songs to be the -least- bit charming. I had the chance to buy a Muntz 4 track of We're only In It For The Money for $40 but passed...still kicking myself over that.... ..but just the idea of early Zappa on 8-track just seems so...appropriate. |

broken songs- I'd rather have a decent home recorded tape that goes
right through the track switch, then the laborious fade in/fade out with replaying a piece of the music on the fade in. Some, but very few, factory fade out/in track switches were done well, though. It depends on what part of the song they do it in. i.e. you wouldn't want to fade out for channel switch, at the beginning of the grandiose guitar lead on Stairway to Heaven- it would just destroy the entire song. |

but if someone offered you $40 each for all your carts, you'd take it
mighty quick, right ? gee, if you hit the lottery for a million, would you accept it ? c'mon, who ya tryin' to kid ? realistically- if you bought a car for $10K, and 10 years later someone thought it was a cool antique and offered you $20K, you'd be a fool not to accept the money ! You're only looking at it from the "buy" perspective- someday you may want to sell to- so keep that in mind |

some people just can't discuss 8-tracks in a friendly manner, I guess !
