This article is inaccurate and incomplete in its failure to include MR tape heads and associated tape cartridges which were first introduced into the mainframe market in 1984 with the IBM 3480. AFAIK, all modern tape drives use MR heads and associated cartridges. Tom94022 (talk) 21:53, 28 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

This page only covers tape heads for audio/video equipment. I suggest that a separate article should be written about digital tape heads. Wmjohn6217 (talk) 19:05, 15 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
Early computer tape heads were also inductive so rather than coming up with a separater and at least partically redundant article this article should be updated to cover MR tape heads. Tom94022 (talk) 17:03, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
