I'm wanting to know what dat tapes people use and what length do you find work the best? Looking to get some but don't know what to buy or look for

I use Maxell 60m Made-in-the-USA and an occasionaly 90m if I must. I usually buy them from Cascade Media (http://www.cascademedia.net).
i use sony 60's and sometimes 90's. i buy them from sonic sense (http://www.sonicsense.com/)

i personally use these:
Sony DDS 60P (60 meters = 2hrs)
Sony DDS 90P (90 meters = 3hrs)
Maxell DDS HS4-90s (90meters)
Sony PDP-95 DAT
Sony PDP-64 DAT
i know that some folks have problems with DDS tapes, but i've yet to have a single issue in using them. 90meter tapes should be no problem for most decks.
http://www.american-digital.com always has a good supply of the DDS tapes.

Forgot to note these are DDS tapes, HS-4/60s and /90s. There's a link to CM's TS.com special pricing page in the Retail forum, and probably a Sonic Sense like in there, too.
i use maxell DDS HS-4 60M dat tapes from http://www.sonicsense.com, have only had 2 problems with maxell misloads in the i cant count how many tapes ive gone through, both 90's so i stay away from 90M in sony decks, but maxell is king of dat tape
i buy maxell 90's and 60's from sonic sense too.
Thanks everyone for your feedback +T for all
