Somewhere I have a cassette tape of me at age 11 and my brother at age 5 performing the John and Chris Show. He sings the Spider-Man theme. It's awesome.

Mine was some business-styled one that I was given with my TI-99/4a to save and load computer programs on. I have no idea what make or model it was, but it was all silver and black so it looked very cool beside that computer :)

My favourite way to listen to music on it was actually through the computer - that way, the audio played through the TV set it was hooked up to.

My first cassette player ate my first ever tape the first night I had it. My dad got me the Star Wars score. He was not happy, even though it wasn't my fault. I have been technology's cat toy ever since.

I've still got it, and it still works. The sound quality is awful, though.

I've switched the image URL in all posts. Looks like the original website was late with its Go Daddy payment.

The stereo system I took to college included an 8-track tape player.

I think I still have my first player. It chews tapes, though. And I wasn't
exactly young when I got it, maybe about 30 years ago when I was 17.

There were at least a couple around the house owned by my older siblings.

Same here...and I'm guessing I started college quite a while after you did. My folks bought it a year before I was born.
