That's true, 'tape' is certainly more rare than it used to be, I do agree that it's fading but I still think 'the kids' would have likely heard it from a parent (or grandparent at this point) and asked or gotten the jist from context.
There are 7 year olds whose parents never interacted with a VHS player, because the VHS was already dying when they were born.
Yup. That's why I mentioned grandparents.
