As the biggest-selling cassette of 2011 - 'N Sync's I'll Never Stop - sold only 11 copies all year, it will come as no surprise that Borders was the nation's number one cassette last week. It was also the number one 7-inch and the number two CD (behind Wherever You Are by The Military Wives) but not among the Top 75 downloads. Incidentally, it is something of a mystery why I'll Never Stop was the biggest selling cassette not only in 2011 but also in 2010 (13 sales) and 2009 (24 sales) - it was only a number 11 hit when released in 2000.

Ok, it was me. I had a few drinks and did it for a laugh.

Joking aside, the last paragraph is something of a curio; interesting to read that cassettes are still selling today albeit in minute amounts. It seems like somone overstocked on it on original release and have been trying to shift it ever since with limited success.

never knew so many people were still carrying a torch for them.
