I recorded some music on Ampex 90 minute tape cassettes.  After playing
them several times (about 5 times), the tapes developed alot of friction,
and the tape deck could hardly turn the tape anymore.  I bought a package
of 3 tapes, and had this problem with 2 of them.  Fortunately, Fred Meyer's
store is good about returns, and I took them back.  
Has anyone else had this problem with Ampex?  I thought it was a fairly
decent brand of tape.  I've had better luck with Memorex and TDK.
