We have many fewer on-air glitches now than we did when we ran carts. No
wowing tapes, no blown cues, no muffled-sounding highs... also no skipping
CD's. Once and a while one of the disks crashes, but that's why one keeps
backups.

All told, I've found hard disk to be both cheaper and more reliable than
carts.
