Abstract :
Magnetic recording is recognized as a superior medium for stereophonic entertainment, but its popularity has been handicapped by inconvenience of threading and high cost. A new approach is a tape cartridge of very low cost, which is compact, and fully protects the record. The cartridge is completely automatic on a machine designed for its use, and yet will operate manually on present tape recorders.
