Perhaps I have misjudged the inventory as mostly "new, old stock". The majority have been remastered/reissued on CD, ergo already digitized.

Their value to collectors will be as the "original release" or "first issue."

It's quite likely the J-Cards will be scanned for new/old credits and notes but the cassette will go in a box, on a shelf, and never touch the inside of a player.

The application itself has already moved past CDs and on to digital files, USB and wireless.
