Cassette and R2R tape are neat formats (when working perfectly.) Easy to copy, no computers required, re-writable, etc.

I guess most magnetic storage is like this. Floppy disks, despite their limited capacity and speed, was akin to USB storage in terms of simplicity and support. Then optical drives came along, adding a load of friction to data storage. CD/DVDs are fine for music players, but moronic for moving data between machines

Seems that the tape goes off the rails and wraps around the capstan's roller. I could probably modify it someway to better keep the tape in place

I really like my cassette player's auto-stop feature. It works by completely shredding the tape to ensure it's stopped forever

Fort Bliss, too. Something is cooking, lol
