To me all the advances in audio technology are not necessary and are nothing short of a racket,one of my pals still insisted on his 8 track,unfortunately he is recently deceased !!
Can't see why I should buy CDs when I have hundreds of cassette tapes to suit my preferred tastes.
GOZZ.

IIRC it changes sides when the tape stops moving. So suggests, er, tape isn't moving 
Inside there's a little spindle and a rubber pinch roller that pulls the tape through, either spindle is slipping or motor not running, something like that
