Even before CD's people copied records to

record from wearing out.
I copied records to cassette so I could listen to them in the car when
on a long trip. I never copied a record to another media just for
convenience. Poor media as cassettes are, having music of my choice to
listen to on a trip when I can't depend on finding decent music on the
radio was a real plus. But I cycled records through about 10 cassettes,
I never had a large collection of records duplicated on tape.
Today I record radio programs that play music that I enjoy, put a few of
those 2-3 hour "records" on an MP3 player and enjoy hearing new and old
things when I'm flying or driving for hours. Sometimes those radio
stations play old scratchy records. Great fun.
