    I'm not kidding about having an 8-track player! It was included as a component in a combined AM/FM radio and 8-track player. The radio is still in regular use, because it is an excellent stereo set with an antenna and two good speakers. No modern radio can beat it. Sadly, we haven't seen an 8-track tape in years. But if one should ever fall into our hands, we would be able to play it!

      @mcc Assuming the 8-track hasn't fused/disintegrated.

                          (BONUS POLL)

                          Which of the following music media, if someone suddenly handed you a piece of music recorded on it, would you be able to play without making additional purchases?

                          NOTES:

                          - If the answer is "none of the above" ,click "Show results". We can probably compare the previous poll to judge the significance of the scale of responses.

                          - Rather than worrying about differences between reel-to-reel formats, answer "reel to reel tape" if you can play at least one reel to reel tape format.

                              @mcc Vinyl only. I don't see a point in CDs – when it comes to ease, playing from drive/stream beats everything, so there needs to be a reason to have additional media. And vinyl has the biggest covers, lovely leaflets and looks pretty while spinning.

                                @mcc I can play cd, minidisc, tape, DCC, reel2reel, vinyl, hdcd, SACD, dvd-audio, blueray pure audio. The prerecorded DAT market was too tiny to bother. If I purchase a needle I can play shellacs.

                                        That's actually an interesting question. My immediate interpretation was "which of the corresponding players in working condition do you own" (which I myself do for everything except 8-track), but thinking deeper, it's that, but also "whether you know someone who owns one and would let you use it" 🤔
