Yeah, I don't really have an urge to either, for the same reasons.  But one thing I'm somewhat interested in is digitizing rare music that was available on cassette but not made available on newer media.  I have a few such cassettes, and several years ago, I bought a cassette deck (which looks like a walkman) with a USB interface, for digitizing cassette tapes.  I recorded a few that I have, then cleaned the audio up a bit, and split them into the separate audio tracks.
