I somehow assumed there wouldn't be direct compatibility with the connectors on my PC.

So tapes are better than CDs because tapes help you rely on corporations to succeed?

That's a pretty arbitrary point to make to call CDs irrelevant.

I still have tons of CDs

Like I've said before, I don't buy CDs because it makes much sense. I just like having them and playing them. It's my thing.

I remember having to use iTunes or Windows media player to get music onto CDs. I didn't know you could release it through the internet at that time. I think I had AOL around then. I don't remember.

because you could actually self release entirely by tape for cheap
So the non-elite are doomed to poorer quality.

by the time you could do that with CD you could release by internet anyway so why bother
Outside of a few examples, you couldn't get popular on the internet until about 2008. So gitchu a time machine, go to 1995, and tell the guy considering getting an affordable recording setup to wait 13 years and he'll just be able to put it out digitally for free.

1/8" jack to RCA is about $5

I made my own CD's, and still do. It's cheaper to have them made in bulk by a company that offers the service though.

which is why bands still used tape
Cheaper. More feasible.
