Chris, 

Sounds like you're saying that its better to invest the relatively short
amount of time to degauss the tape path often rather than to have
un-repairable damage to archive or customer tape's content that can't be
replaced or restored.

What is the current practice among our QuadList users?

I could not afford to even do the additional passes.  The client in the post
production business will not accept any damage to their tape.  And now, it
is even more critical in the transfer business.  I can see where this would
apply in the broadcast station where tape gets reused a lot.  We would have
to eat the time and tape costs to do any work over that was damaged in this
method.  So our standards were different than many other places.
