Never owned a Spectrum before. As a teenager I had Commodore 64, like pretty much all my friends. This one boots and works, but as of now I have no way of loading programs. I think I need a DivMMC or something.

Maybe I could convert some .tap files to .wav and play them out on a computer without even using a dedicated tape loader software? That might even work using my old mp3 player, which would be kind of cool. Not really sure if it plays .wav, though, and I suppose mp3 compression would be a problem. I’d just need to find a mono cable to try that, and they seem to be somewhat hard to find.
Yes, you can play back the “sound” of a data tape via a .wav file. I have seen audio compression used before I don’t it think it would be as reliable.
There are tape loading cables available online, avoid using stereo cables.
