Shareware tapes collection? Was there really such a thing? If so I would imagine it would be one or two demos per tape? | ||

Yes there was such a thing, for those of us that leaved throught the 1980's. There are tons of games that you can fit into 60m, 90m, or 180m tapes, when 48 KB/128 KB is all you got. More like 20 or something. Magazines like Your Sinclair and Crash would have such cassete tapes, https://archive.org/details/YourSinclair37Jan89/YourSinclair... https://www.crashonline.org.uk/ They would be glued into the magazine with adhesive tape, and later on to avoid them being stolen, the whole magazine plus tape would be in a plastic. | ||
