Without getting technical, the main thing that I've found a problem with
compact cassettes is that the sound quality of each recorded tape
deteriorates over time, e.g. you get print-through and other problems. The
way you store the tapes has some influence, cool and dry is the best way to
go. But if you plan to transfer your recordings to CD, then storage of
recorded cassettes will be less of an issue. Probably best just to transfer
the entire cassette to CD. You can extract any sequences that you want,
later.
