At least the tracks are listed and you can skip or go directly to the track you are listening to ... try that with THIS!

I had a fancy cassete player in my first 2 cars (same player that I just transfered over), if the gap between the different tracks was long enough you could skip forward a track. It would FFWD until it found the gap and then play from there.

yeah, its called auto cue. All my tape decks had that feature. LOL it was a requirement for me.

the problem came in when I'd get cassette recordings of club mix CDs, one track mixes into the next with no gap between

Was coming down a hill pretty fast today on the MTB, marvelling at how great disk brakes are and remembering how, as a kid, I'd stick my takkied-foot against the front tyre to slow down when the brake pads wore out but I still wanted to ride my bike . . .
