Long ago, my friend would record music on a VHS tape. It held hours of tunes, and during a party, he didn't have to change albums.

I remember this was a thing that DIY audiophiles did. The VHS tape was very wide and stored a lot of information, so you could get very high quality sound reproduction and also store more music. It was better sound than you could get from a reel to reel machine and far better than you could get on a cassette. But you had to know some electronics to modify your VCR so it only recorded audio over the entire tape instead of using the tape of audio and video.

I bet there's a website somewhere now that explains how it was done.

I have pretty much my entire library of vinyl and CDs converted to mp3s. The Zings graduation parties were pretty much all day things. I never had to touch the music.

This guy did it BCD (before CDs).

Right. Knew that. In fact I did the same thing. The point was how far things have come.

This is much more a function of the mouse DRIVER and less about the specific mouse.
