MakerBot brings back the ‘Mixtape' as a printable MP3 player

MakerBot brings back the ‘Mixtape' as a printable MP3 player

If you thought mixtapes died with the MP3 era, you're wrong. Sure, they've become niche, and it's perhaps cloyingly retro to break out your Walkman, but it's hard to deny the appeal. There are already USB drives and DAPs made to look like an old-school magnetic cassette, but if you want something a little more DIY, MakerBot has a kit that you purchase and assemble your own MP3-playing “tape.” For $25 you get a package with all the essential internals plus plans for your Replicator to print out the snap together casing.
