I basically agree with BobP

But if all you're ever going to do is speech recordings at lo-fi, the Plusdeck may be good enough. I would think the quality on music tapes wouldn't be that great though.

I would also say that the quality of a properly encoded high-bitrate mp3 (256 kbps or better) is better than most cassettes. Usually I can't tell the difference between a high-bitrate MP3 and a CD. But I usually can tell a tape copy from a CD. Though the difference when it's recorded on CrO2 tape on my Nak is pretty minimal.

Cheers,
Bobbo :-)
