It appears from the advertising (am I too gullible?) that the
tape manufacturers are almost continuously improving their product,
at least the high end response.  On one hand this sounds great;
on the other hand, would you applaud if speaker, cartridge, amp,
etc., manufacturers kept boosting the highs by an additional db
every six months?  If nothing else, doesn't this ever-increasing
high-end response play havoc with Dolby tracking?
