A media cassette (10,100) includes a body (14,114) having a removable lid (12,112). The body (14,114) defines a closeable pick window (22,122); an urging plate (44,144) biased towards the pick window (22,122) for urging a stack (62) of media items towards the pick window (22,122); a detent (46,170) located distal from the pick window (22,122) for limiting movement of the urging plate (44,144); and a detent moving mechanism (48,174) operable to move the detent (46,170). The detent moving mechanism (48,174) may be operated by engaging the removable lid (112) or by insertion of the cassette into a media handler (58). The media cassette (10) allows the urging plate (44,144) to exert less force on the stack (62) of media items by expanding the space available for media items located within the cassette (10,100) by activating the detent moving mechanism (48,174).
