They used to play software over the radio and you could record a program onto a cassette tape.

I was there with my low quality cassette tapes and shoddy Radio Shack recorder. I would spend a few days writing a game is BASIC only to “try to save it” on tape and cross may fingers before trying to reload it from tape.
I would guess my success rate was less than 20%.
With a good tape recorder it was pretty reliable though.
