Ok fair enough. Yes, 1.0 mil tape can have more print through compared to it's thicker counterpart. But you raised a question I should have mentioned in my original post. Do you currently use 1.0 mil tape? Because that's really who this question is directed at. Think Maxell UD and XLI, Quantegy 407, PYRAL LPR-35, etc. If you already do not use these (for whatever reason), then I wouldn't expect you to become a convert starting with my idea. If you are content using 1.5 only, then that's totally cool and I respect that. My question is for people that do use the long play tapes.

  I just checked with a friend who gets me RMI tape at dealer cost.
  
  Current price for a 20 pack; 3600ft; "pancake" of LPR35 (1.3mil) is around $30 per reel. 20 pack; 2500ft; SM900 (2 mil) is around $24 per reel.
