[Note] => Due to a lack of funding, the Stasi used low-quality tapes and reused tapes extensively. Bijsterveld: “As soon as the tapes of calls had been transcribed and analyzed, most were reused, with adverse effects on quality. West Berlin families driving back and forth to West Germany, thus crossing the East German border, were often forced to hand the GDR border police their music cassette tapes, which could be reused by the Stasi for its surveillance work. Archivists working with the tapes today may well have to listen to half an hour of German Schlager hits [popular songs] before they suddenly hear a wiretapped telephone call.”
