Ah, the mixtape. Have you missed it? The Milktape USB Cassette is a revival of the old practice of compiling tracks from the radio, other tapes and later from CDs; however, this product enables you to organize music easily and efficiently and straight from your computer.
Harkening back to the 1990s, the device has been manufactured to resemble the plastic cartridges that were made with a pair of wheels and a delicate wound ribbon inside. While you won't find these components in this version, you will discover a pull-out flash drive that treats the familiar piece of plastic as an oversized cover. The low capacity of the Milktape USB cassette tape encourages you to edit your songs down to about 15, similar to the number you'll find on your old mix tapes.
