DAT decks have just started appearing in the pro music stores here (at least at Saved By Technology in Toronto), but they didn't have any tapes for sale. Sony will sell tapes to people for professional purposes only, but you need a company letterhead to order. In other words, don't hold your breath. But what about 8mm video? This format should also be amenable to HD backup, and can store video or (literally) hours and hours of PCM audio (24 hours I think) on a single tape. Note that this audio is very nearly (inaudible difference) as good as DAT or CDs. BTW. Flame on you Richard for not answering my mail. /* posted from amiga42 - The Answer */ -- {utzoo|mnetor}!dciem!zorac!dretor!king | king%dretor@zorac.dciem.dnd.ca
