Now that I have my new Honda Element(orange), I will need to buy more CD's. About 60% of all the music I own is on cassette, but unfortunately my Element does not have a tape player. Therefore, I will now have to buy the same music I own over again, just on CD this time. It's much better quality anyway.

I do have access to cassette players throughout the house, but I don't really listen to music at home. Those days of me hanging out in my room as a teenager, or living single by myself and listening to tapes are long gone. Home life with a husband, 2 kids, a very loud roommate, 3 TV's, a laptop (which I use several times daily), and not to mention, things to clean and food to prepare..are way too many things on the list for music to ever be listened to. It's rare occasion where all of us decide to throw a CD on and turn the TV off.

So the point I'm getting at, I only get to listen to my music when driving in my car. My old car had no CD player and the tape player was broken. So I was stuck with listening to the radio for 3 years. I almost developed carpel tunnel from changing stations just trying to find something decent to listen to.

My first tape-to-cd conversion will be Tori's "Little Earthquakes" and "the choir girl hotel". Probably my top two favorite.
