Cassettes, royalties are paid to recording industry
Ever buy a cassette or CDR Music CD? Then guess what? The recording industry makes royalties on them
because we (the public) might copy music from a copy-protected source (radio, other cassettes, etc.)
So, even if you don't use those for copying music, they still get there cut of the money!
