We have 3 IBM LTO libraries in which we have a few IBM tapes, but primarily use 
Sony and Imation.  There was a recall of Imation tapes a short while ago, due 
to a problem with IBM drives, but the problem has apparently been fixed (I have 
been assured by Imation).  We have had no problems with the Sony tapes.
