You Should Transfer and Convert Now! SAVE YOUR PRECIOUS MOMENTS!! CONVERT YOUR REEL-TO-REEL, VIDEO TAPES, AND PHOTOS TO A DIGITAL FORMAT DVD'S NOW!!! You should have precious videos like a wedding, the arrival of a baby, holiday family gatherings, dance recitals, school plays, sporting events, birthday parties, competitions or just kids playing around the house converted to DVD. Because you are i
n danger of losing them forever! Videotapes lose their magnetic signal over time, quality and color of your memories deteriorate due to the friction between the VCR head and tape, and the tape grows brittle and eventually breaks – even when sitting on a shelf! Especially troublesome is a climate like Casper with wild temperature swings and ultra-low humidity levels, which wreak havoc on the materials that make up audio and video tapes. The truth is, videotape is not forever. Unlike movie film — which can last for decades — videotape is far more fragile. In fact, no magnetic recording medium is permanent:
1. Video quality deteriorates each time you watch.
2. Video quality will deteriorate after 10 years, even if you do not watch them.
3. Your VCR (If you still have one!) can destroy your tape when it malfunctions.
4. Analog videotape (from the 20th century), like VHS tapes, will not last as long as digital tape.
5. Digital tape is better, but it has an expected useful life of only 20 years if stored under ideal conditions. The conversion process does not affect the original tapes. We do not make any changes to the original tapes, unless we need to in order to play them! They will be played and rewound a few times by a quality VCR while they are being processed. This will not affect the original tapes any more, than if you played and rewound them a few times at home.
