Welcome to you, and to all the other newcomers.

I believe that the recording is exactly the same, whether you get it on CDs or cassettes.  I simply like the ease of CDs, because I can "skip" immediately to one of about 15 tracks on each CD to listen to a favorite part (instead of rewinding/fast forwarding a tape and trying to estimate where the part is I'm trying to
find).

It also depends, I suppose on where you want to play it.  Do you have a CD player or a tape player in your car?
