I have been using a SpectraLogic 10000 library with 40 slots and 4 AIT drives for a couple of years now and the performance has been so good that we are dumping DLT across the enterprise and switching to AIT.
I even contacted SpectraLogic and had them add amanda under the "a user has gotten it to work" software category. ;)
And for the "beta" remark about sony.....mine still works, beta is still used by a great number of commercial organizations, and my 20 year old beta player still outperforms my 2 year old VHS machine. Just because your average consumer can't get their hands on it anymore doesn't mean anything, we after all, are not your average consumers.
