that reasoning, the simple act of rewinding, (or fast forwarding) would wear out the hub in the shell.

  ....THE pre-eminent place to talk about, gawk at, and learn about tape, nothing is "rubbish". Tape has so many advantages....both aesthetic and practical...over most of todays "convenient" digital mediums. For one to say that tape is useless is to miss its essence. And in all likelihood is more sold on convenince at the cost of fidelity. And therefore it would stand to reason that when viewed through that prism, music probably isn't high on the list of hobbies and interest anyway.

  And above all else, many of us simply PREFER tape.

    "only passing on what i picked up online from forums such as this though."
    
    Bad idea. There's a lot of gibberish that gets posted on audio forums.
