Subject: Re: 9 track reel tapes
Tapes are a hard sell, because the cost to ship them
is often more
than you can buy brand new ones for. You need to find someone who
doesn't know they are still being made, but has a tape drive without
many tapes.
To the best of my knowledge, the last company to manufacture tapes, eMag, has closed down
production. There still is a stock left, the but production has seized.
If you know for a fact that tapes are still being made, I'd like to know it
