I remember reading that magnetic tape recording did not come to the US until after WWII. However, the Germans were using it as early as the 1930s.
Follow Ups:
The third wave of development in audio recording began in 1945, when the allied nations gained access to a new German invention - magnetic tape recording. The technology was invented in the 1930s, but remained restricted to Germany (where it was widely used in broadcasting) until the end of World War II. Magnetic tape provided another dramatic leap in audio fidelity — indeed, Allied observers first became aware of the existence of the new technology because they noticed that the audio quality of obviously pre-recorded programs was practically indistinguishable from live broadcasts. From 1950 onwards, magnetic tape quickly became the standard medium of audio master recording in the radio and music industries....

or read somewhere that Bing Crosby brought the first tape recorder to the US from Europe at the end of WWII. He hated doing his radio show live.
