The magnetic tape cartridge group includes a plurality of magnetic tape cartridges. Regarding 100 reels of magnetic tape cartridges, in a case where a maximum value of an absolute value of a difference between a servo band spacing obtained before predetermined storage and a servo band spacing obtained after the predetermined storage is defined as A, an arithmetic mean of medium lives calculated by a linear function derived from a value of A obtained for different N and a value of the logarithm of total storage time T of the storage of N cycles is 3 years or longer and 3? is 1 year or shorter. Medium life: T in a case where A satisfies A=1.5?B. B: a value calculated by multiplying a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of servo band spacings obtained in each of the five environments by ?.
