IME, C90s would hold more than 90 mins of music.  For safety, I'd
recommend upping the 45 to 48 or more.

However, if Tom wants to record commercially produced tapes (for
personal use only, of course), there's no way to know what length they
are, other than to sit and time them.  Especially as at least one side
will invariably have a rather long lead out.  Sometimes, the lead in
can be excessive, too.
