@Yeah, cewl. couldn't remember the tape anymore.
[...] If you play it too often it breaks down, you get the deformed theme.
Breaks down, or a matter of depleted batteries (more my interpretation)?
If I'm not mistaken you will hear the deformed tune only once, then the item is gone from your inventory ;-)
Yeah, that is more sensible . And indeed.
This tape is being used to let soldiers salute so you can sneak past.
Wasn't either the tape or the player inside a closet there where all those beds are? With the sleeping soldiers and squeekey floor?
It's apparently a self-playing tape (?), since you can just use it from your inventory and it'll play -- no player required!
Or maybe Solid Snake just has a previously unmentioned portable cassette player on him at all times? Probably why it chews up the anthem tape so quickly -- that thing's been through hell.

Hmm... Memory must be playing tricks on me then.
I think he has a player with him... Big Boss sure likes his cassette recorders, and he is a clone afterall....
Nah, the item looks like a cassette player (though the item is called CASSETTE or CASSETTE TAPE (in the translated version anyway)) So it's tape + player
Beat you to it @Grauw? ;-) (+ spoilers for the peep who don't remember (or perhaps even missed it before)?
)
Did someone make a YouTube video where "MGSV Snake" plays the broken anthem tune? It should be made
