car, they are a nightmare just to put in the player!)


DAT is, in my view, even better. I can fit a three hour opera on a
tape costing a few pounds at full CD quality. This is more than
sufficient for most journeys. Another advantage is that DAT is
effectively jog-proof.

It's such a shame that portable DAT recorders are so expensive,
especially since my old Casio machine is no longer working very well.
