An 8 track was a Large (ish) cassette (about 3/4 size of a VHS tape which had (wait for it) 8 tracks on it so you could shuffle through the music. It was made for both cars & home players & was before cassettes came along, in fact if my memory serves me correctly cassettes killed it off.
To be honest I did not realise they still made cassette decks, I got rid of my last one around 10 years ago!
