Cassette Tapes were invented in 1962, they were also referred as "Compact Cassette".It was a magnetic tape sound recording format, which was created for audio storage. It was one of the first technologies that allowed us to share music and recordings on a wider scale.
The invention was first released in Europe at the Berlin Radio Show, then later released in the United States the following year under the Norelco Band.
Technology kept improving, which resulted in advancing the tapes by noises reduction, ability to play stereo tapes and high quality sound form.
Improving technology was not good for cassette tapes due to them disappearing with more usage of CDs and DVDs.
Today we think of cassette tapes as retro or vintage artifacts.
It has helped society progress to some of the best technologies we've come across.
