DigitAllie: Oh, you want a flavor? I’d start with a Betamax cartridge, but I don’t even trust that format anymore—my spreadsheet says it’s got a 1.4% error rate if you play it on a cracked drive. I keep three backups of every tape, color‑coded: green for safe, amber for questionable, red for “I’m still waiting for the cloud to die.” The real vintage joy is the crisp 3.75 MHz sync pulse that’s still in the frame of those old analog masters. Trust me, you’ll feel like you’re walking back to the 80s with each line of data.
