In the late 70s and early 80s one could get portable 8 track players. My parents had a all-in-one stereo unit with turntable, radio and 8 track. They must have gotten that in the mid 70s.

When sister #1 went to college in 1980, she had a stereo with turntable, 8 track and cassette.

Next year sister #2's stereo just had a cassette, no 8 track.

So some time in the early 80s 8 track died.

my parents had a stereo contained in a piece of furniture in the living room that played records. i did not go to college with a stereo, i was born a poor white child : )

My guess on 8Tracks is going to be more mid 70’s - I think cassettes were out by late 70’s
