Tape is not easy to edit, but you dont edit tape you edit the data it contains.
The video data on tape mediums, both dv and hdv is less compressed ( better quality) and in a form that lends itself to editing.
This forum is full of posts from peole who have been misled by sales people - many find the video produced fiddly or impossible to edit without more fiddling.
