8mm digital tape life

i have a digital video camera that i will use the same tape on, just record over stuff ive already shot. i record it to vhs for TV replay, as to not dirty the head on the camera, or beat the motor too much. i like to drink beer and watch my twisty back road runs again and agin.

seem that the quality of the video falls off after a couple tapings on the same 8mm tape. is this the case, or am i imagining it? is the 8mm tape good for one quality taping and then additional retapes suck?

thanks for any experiences you have in this
