We also started using the 3590E's and one tape had to be physically removed
from the tape drive - the tape snapped and had to be replaced. A few days
earlier, someone in the tape library dropped a 3590E cartridge, but I was
told that it was not damaged. The tape that got stuck is probably that
"undamaged" tape...
BTW we pay $60 for every one of those tapes.

We had a E-tape get stuck in a drive. The IBM CE showed up to
work on it. After a while he came walking up to our desks
holding the cartridge in one hand and yards of mangled tape in his
other hand. He showed us a spot on the tape - there was
a splice, and a very bad splice at that (ends were not lined
up very well).
