I had tons of cheap boom boxes growing up, including a couple of those
that would let you dub a cassette. You know, not one of them recorded
accurately - the copy always ended up sounding sped up so I never got
into dubbing tapes.

I think the issue isthat there's some degradation. You could make a
tape for friend 1, if friend 1 made a tape for friend 2 and friend 2
made a tape for friend 3, the sound degradation would be cumulative.

That wouldn't stop those multi-tape dubbers people used to make
commercial pirate copies...
