When microcassette recorders became cheap in the mid-1980s many
lecturers banned their use for recording their lectures, especially
in law subjects.

When I did cost-benefit analysis we had to return our notes to the
lecturer at the end of the year. Although this was a special deal --
he would name names in the case studies if we returned the material
recording his defamations.
