Here is why tape, though old school, is still the best for on the spot recording.

1 ) Handy

2) Small

3) Built in Mic

4) Don't have to worry about the PC being on or on the right program. Just hit REC, play, 'fuh-get about it (for at least 30 minutes to 45 minutes)

5) Drum roll puh-lease

I'll quote the movie again.
