i certainly recall a cassette with dolby B or C on sounding better 
once it was transferred to DAT.  at the time i had no experience or 
knowledge of such things so i wasn't "expecting" it.

thanks!  i always hear about taiyo yuden and i need to get a bunch 
of those instead of my friend continually buying cheap store 
blowouts.  the irony is, we used to use mitsui CDs for stand-alone 
burning, but they don't work too well in the TDK 40x burner on the 
computer!  i hope the TYs will be better.
