Radio Cassette

Japanese: ラジオ・カセット
Radio Cassette
A combination of a radio receiver and a cassette tape recorder, commonly known as a radio cassette recorder. It was developed to satisfy the desire to record whatever parts of the radio you want onto a tape and then play it back whenever you want. Thanks to technological innovations such as integrated circuits and cassette tape recorders, it has become smaller and cheaper, and has spread rapidly since the 1970s. Initially, it was used mainly for recording and playing back language programs on the radio, but recently it has been used mainly for music programs.

ラジオ受信機とカセットテープレコーダーを一体化したもので,ラジカセと略称される。ラジオを聞いていて好きなところを自由にテープに収録し,また好きなときに自由にこれを再生したいという欲求にこたえたもので,集積回路やカセット式テープレコーダーなどの技術革新によって小型化,価格の低廉化に成功し,1970年代から急速に普及してきた。当初はラジオの語学番組の収録・再生を中心に利用されたが,最近はもっぱら音楽番組を対象にした利用が多い。
