True dat.
I also hear my mobile phone ring, and since I use an old fashioned phone bell sound as a ringtone, it's still relevant in my case.
But, not for nothing, while it's true there is no unwinding tape that needs to be rewound, "fast forward" is still perfectly accurate and technology agnostic.
