Nigel,
I believe the only problem with labeling the cleaning tape
is that you can't readilly check the tape label. Cleaning
tapes are really physical device that emulate the SW device
/dev/null, useful for some applications. That is what they
do afterall, absorbe all the left over bits on the drive
heads.
