as a new hitech product for energy saving data storage ...

as we know and love it ...

Not too sure about storage, access speeds would surely be an issue.

But for audio..........well I've returned to analogue big time. Totally bored with the ol' "digital experience". Purchased a Yamaha KX393 cassette deck recently, it sounds fantastic and recording quality is excellent. 

think, engineers will find a way for digital datas on tape... the hunger for energy of all these server farms is incredible ...

my recording deck is a yammy kx 670, and i love it too ^_^ ... and your experience is the same i had in 2011....  gratz to your 393 !

Tape-based storage has been around for years and it will always have a place for long-term storage. I work at a big company and we just launched a new taped-based storage device yesterday.

that`s right, i used tape streamers 20 yrs. ago for my PC ^_^... but i didn`t know, that they may build such devices which can hold so many datas ...
