Review on Sony DVM63 DVC Mini Tape by Daryl Fitch

I have bought these tapes several times over the last few years and Sony make very good HD videocassettes. All of my 100+ tapes that I have purchased and used have no gaps or jams. HOWEVER, the last two shipments of my 5 pack came in the thinnest ribbon sleeves. Suitcases used to be quite thick and very strong, but now they're made of plastic so thin that if you open the suitcase too quickly, you'll break the side hinges. the last half year or so. All in all I can live with cheap cassette shells as long as Sony keeps releasing high quality HD cassettes in these shells.
