Tapes are a versatile and durable storage medium for audio, video, and data. They come in a variety of sizes, formats and recordings lengths. Tapes provide long-term archival storage and can also be used as backup media to prevent data loss. Tapes are often used in the music industry to record studio albums or live performances, while VHS tapes were commonly used to store movies and television shows until they were replaced by DVD's. Data tapes can also be used to store large amounts of information securely and reliably.
