Yes, Arran, that's what happens with some tapes. They were caught up in producing the next best idea and forgot to make something that reliably recorded and kept information. I remember when 3M came out with a half inch computer tape that had the latest and greatest, super thin, double density tape. Trouble was only the government and high end computer users could afford to buy them and after a while they started loosing integrity and tape cleaners got gunked up with all the lovely technology.
