Demagnatizing Phono Cartridges


I'm curious as to how many of the analogisti demagnatize their cartridges. What do you use and how often to you do it? Is this really essential -- is the magnetism a cumulative thing that palpably degrades sound?

van den Hul says that demagnitizing a cartridge, at least with Fluxbuster type devices, ruins them over the long haul. Does anyone know why?
