"The tape is more an art object that also plays music (similar to vinyl) where the CDR is more a vessel for a piece of music."
--Matthew Sage of Patient Sounds, a tape-focused label based out of Fort Collins, Colorado. (via npr)

Yes. Listening to a tape is proof that you care about hipster aesthetic more than listening to music.
