So, will you agree that a raw bit rate of 22050 bit/s could be possible?
With GCR coding (change in the output -> '1', no change -> '0') the
efficient bit rate could be e.g. 4/5 of that, which means 2205 bytes per
second, or 29.7 seconds to fill 64 kilobytes.  And you could store two
programs per CD track: just select the channel (left/right) on the adapter
that plugs into the datassette port, and that's it.  This would fit about
149 programs per CD.  If the limit is 99, then one could store a normally
SAVEd loader in the beginning of each track as well.

Hmm, Levente, didn't you say that you have more spare time now? :-)
