Made handling them a little easier. Also for some reason these small cassetes were everywhere and easier to come by.) I even had a friend group where I was the typist to copy code from the latest zines because I would make the least amount of errors when transferring from paper to tape. Good times. You hit me right in my nostalgia with your comment.
