Videos basically explains it. There are lots of people making devices, but with cassettes, the deck core mechanism is basically the same simple spec that Chinese manufacturers have knocked off.

Yeah just now watched it fully it's interesting there's no mention of any of the old Sony fancy features on the new ones either, think my old one had all the dolby stuff and could do things cassettes usually couldn't like skip and rewind tracks etc.
