I am planning a bulk : purchase of about 500 tapes and although I could by something like one of : each, I would still be curious about anyones findings on this. : : Thank you, : : Doug! On the whole they seem to be ok, but we have recently dumped all the SONY's as we had a few occurrences of tapes being bad on restores. We have had no similar problems with the genuine articles.
