That's debatable. The real reason it probably died was the same as for
other tape-based formats. It involves mechanics (Alignment and wear
issues. Yeah, I know, harddrives have mechanics, too, but not as prone
to wear or failure.) and it is slower than harddisk-based systems. I
or my clients never had a problem with the sound and many of them are
pretty picky.
