This isn't really on-topic, but quite a few "common" ISO/ANSI standards seem to
have ECMA equivalents (ISO9660 is a definite example).

Copies of these standards cost money to obtain from ISO or ANSI, but the
identical ECMA documents are available free of charge from the ECMA web site at
http://www.ecma.ch/.

There is at least one ECMA standard that covers tape formats; maybe it is the
same as the mentioned ANSI standard?
