Vinyl records have made a comeback in recent years for many people. Are cassette tapes the next new-old technology to be brought back by nostalgia seekers?

It just might be time to dust of those old decks you never got rid of. Cassette sales have reached their highest point in 15 years.

According to OfficialCharts.com, while the numbers represent just 0.2 percent of all albums sold, sales are up 112 percent year-over-year in the UK, with over 36,000 bought in 2019 alone.

Which artists are driving the purchases? Billie Eilish, who put out several editions of When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? in multiple colors, as well as Catfish & The Bottlemen and Madonna.

The soundtracks for Guardians Of The Galaxy are also big sellers, with several thousand copies bought on tape.

Do you think a cassette comeback is a good thing?
