Give me all your pocket money! (For tapes, that is.)

I have a couple of questions whose answers might spark some optimism.

* Who wants tapes in the first place?

Anyone? OK.

* What do you want on them?
* Who wants their own thing on tape (no matter what platform)?
* What do you expect to get with an order? (What would make you feel right home, what would pee you off?)
* What are you willing to pay? (Excluding shipping.)
* What would you expect to earn? Stifled laughter is around the corner…
* Would you buy in bulk and distribute yourself?
* How about compilations? Like "Denial Releases of 20xx" for example.

What I have to offer:

* Professionally printed label and inlay (several steps of work); a tad cheaper for just-in-time once-in-a-while sells.
* Turbo Loader / Splash screen.
* Cycle-exact material recorded with HiFi equipment. (Had it up to 5432kbit/s reliably. That reads quality.)
* Delivery within 3-4 days (AFAIR this never took more than three to anywhere on this planet but times changed quite a lot.)

Whatever makes you happy: please let me know.

While I am a fan of physical releases, I'm not really a fan of tapes. Also, on the physical releases I own I still use the digital version (either in emulation or through SD2IEC-drive on the VIC).

But anything that is a cool project and/or looks cool in the cupboard will get my money. Unless it's unreasonably high (50 EUR is a threshold I'm not likely to go over).

Everyone wants carts, aye?

That's huge. There are riots for that kind of money about everywhere. I better show up at old-bags-bring-even-older-computers meetings with that tape making station. Comes with quadruple+ win situations.

I'd probably cough up 30 Euros for a bit of collectable-ia, if it came in a nice box etc. 10 Euros for a digital download.
