Analogue to digital

It's a pity. I bought cassettes in the 80s and 90s. Records were too expensive for me. Now I'm finding that I need to buy my favourite music from that era again because a) I got rid of my cassettes because of inter-country transition, and b) who owns a cassette player now?

I think there is one in our 2000 Holden car?

Lucky you - commercial companies who are benefiting!

Henry Van Dyke

It is only by thinking about great and good things that we come to love them; and it is only by loving them that we come to long for them; and it is only by longing for them that we are impelled to seek after them; and it is only by seeking after them that they become ours.
