Cassette is still being produced though. I have a cassette player from 2015 and I also have blank Maxell cassettes from that time too.
But I should wish floppy disks were still around, including VHS.

Like on your other deviation, the artstyle is also very lovely in this one.
As other commenters wrote, I also belong to the last generation which was actively in touch with these formats (and still am, the music cassette was never dead for me and I recently purchased a 10 pack of 3.5inch diskettes with 1.44MB in a store for fun to see what I could do with them).
In case you consider making another entry to this series, there is no image like that with versions with truly forgotten media, e.g. MiniDisc (abbreviated as MD), DAT (or DDS, a digital audio tape), DCC (the rival format, digital compact cassette) and Betamax (a commercially failed VHS equivalent).
Though it would be questionable if MDs would truly fit right in, they're still being produced in Japan. Then again, you can still buy type1 analogue MCs in some stores, so... Alternatively the huge LaserDisc would work too.
Either way, another instant fave!

Ah, I remember these...Especially Videotapes and casette tapes. It makes me feel old, but I do remember when these were the norm. I do love CDs (which is fast on it's way out, along with DVDs, but I still watch Videotapes. Ah, nostalgia...

I never used 5 inch floppy but I remember how awesome the other 3 things are. all this modern disks don't have their special charm.
I just found a VHS in a wardrobe. I like how it feels in hands. I miss those days

This makes me think of Toy Story 3 (which I'm not very fond of.) As for these guys, I still use 'em... except for floppy disks. I've never been a friend of computers.

I will never forget them 
VHS was where I started, and floppies carried me forever.
Casette tapes, not so much, but I had a bunch.
Oh, the memories. Had an old VHS player and have so many tapes for it. The tenants at our old place saw fit to throw it out, I died a little that day.
