Now that LTO6 is out, and I can even upgrade my TS3310(aka 3576) and my
TS3200 (aka 3573) tape libraries to it, is anyone seeing a price drop in
LTO5?

We're currently running LTO3 but have been given the green light to
upgrade to LTO4. There was a huge performance gain between LTO3 and LTO4.
There wasn't quite that big of a gap between LTO4 and LTO5. I guess I
should be happy with LTO4 but I was wondering about that, long term wise.
Probably stuck already as the TS3200 just got upgraded to LTO4. But, we
haven't bought any LTO4 tapes yet. When we get the other library upgraded
the operator is to pull in all tapes and dup them to LTO4, clear the old
ones and trade them in. Our vendor is giving us x days to do so.
Temporarily holding on to another 3573 just to clear tapes.
