Several days ago I stumbled onto a tread with a link to a company with very cheap miniDV AY-DVM63MQ Master Grade Mini DV Tape (like $6 if buy over 50). I was wondering if anyone knew the name of the comany or had any other suggestions.

These are the tapes I should be using, right?

Thanks!

Pro-Tape.com (a recent sponsor but not listed now?) has them for just under $6 ea. http://store.yahoo.com/protape/new.html

As to what tape you "SHOULD" use, there has been much debate/discussion on this board, feel free to search away!
I've been using MQ's from the start and have yet to experience a problem.

Hmmm - I wonder what happened to Pro-Tape?

www.taperesources.com is another reputable source that sells the MQs for less than $6.00.

tape resources is great! Highly recommended.

Thanks guys

Nate--The cheapest I've ever found is www.tapestockonline.com. I pay around 5.45 a tape, though if you buy more it gets cheaper. They're out of CA, too, which would be convenient for you. Very fast service, and you can't beat the price. I think the next cheapest I found was Edgewise Media, maybe a dime or a a little more a tape.
