I work for a publicly held company and what I buy and how long it is to last is rolled up to be a part of what our investors see. If tape didn't work well (and it does) it would be a different issue and I'd write it off but otherwise, I am not spending my budget wisely because I would be replacing something that isn't scheduled to be replaced.

I understand your frustration on the one hand but I'm not sure tape is bad or obolete, just not necessarily state of the art.
