磁带 (cí dài): magnetic tape

Grandpa dug out an old cassette from the drawer and put it into the recorder; then the songs he sang when he was young played from it.

In order to preserve these precious interview recordings, the librarian converted the content on the tapes into digital files.

When I was little, I always liked to use a pencil to wind the stuck tape back, and then continue listening.

This old shop still sells blank tapes; some music lovers buy them to record their own albums.
