Modern Mix

I'm a sucker for nostalgia, so when the folks at Milktape sent me one of their USB cassettes, I immediately fell for its charm. I've loved making mixtapes and CDs ever since I was old enough to operate a boombox and actually pride myself on my mix-making ability. I'm pretty particular when it comes to choosing songs and, just as importantly, the order they play in. Milktape holds about 15 songs and is a fun blend of modern technology (it's so easy to drag and drop) but still has that same homespun quality of an old-fashioned mix. It's a bit pricey at $15 but would make a cute gift for that special friend who needs a lesson in classic rock.
