Kansas City standard
（重定向自Floppy ROM）
The Kansas City standard (KCS), or Byte standard, is a digital data format for audio cassette drives. Byte magazine sponsored a symposium in November 1975 in Kansas City, Missouri to develop a standard for storage of digital microcomputer data on inexpensive consumer quality cassettes, at a time when floppy disk drives cost more than $1,000 USD each (today more than $4400 USD). Although the standard had existed from the earliest days of the microcomputer revolution, very few systems are said to have used it as their standard.
