I made comment on this thread yesterday and today Audio magazine
arrived and there is a lengthy discussion on the tape problems.

One thing that struck me from the charts included is that
hydrolysys is a problem.  Too high a humidity will cause much
degradation..  

THe processing available from Agfa is also mentioned, but only for
agfa customers it appears, and its in the neighborhood of $250 per
2500 feet.   I suggest reading of the article well answer most
questions.
