    Am i the only one who's cassette Came with a really bad printing quality? The type looks horrible and so do the inlay lyrics. I know it's official and not a counterfeit, so maybe someone else had this problem? It looks like a bad Re-printing of it

      Literally sounds so good, almost perfect even, it’s definitely way more dynamic than digital

        Es perfecto. La presentación, la calidad de impresión, el sonido, absolutamente todo.
        Cero puntos negativos con mi copia. Impecable.

          This seems an appropriate place to write this: I have noticed a VERY slow trickle of cassette releases over the past years, usually in limited editions or for special promos.

          So people have a special machine just to play these singular outings? I am surprised people still bother with cassettes - I thought they died with the Sony Walkman. The potential for unravelling and stretching with such a flimsy tape was too much for the collector.

          But I am guessing the sound quality is more reliable? I'd be interested to know who finds the caseette attractive, and why . . .

            Just for curiosity, is the original crossfade between Frosti and Aurora intact in this version or removed?
