Watch there now be a cassette renaissance like there was a record renaissance, despite the cassette having horrible audio quality compared to a CD.

You can buy them from Barnes and Noble and Taylor Swift is releasing her new stuff on them, I think the renaissance has begun (and possibly already peaked)

There's been a resurgence for a while! There are countless tape labels releasing interesting music (see: https://daily.bandcamp.com/tape-label-report and Marc Masters' book "High Bias," which is mentioned in the piece).
