Save your precious video memories to DVD.. before it's too late!
By now, everyone knows that the shelf life of a videotape is about fifteen years and this only if the tape has been handled and stored correctly and played...only occasionally.
There are many factors working against the longevity of your videotapes. Most video conversion businesses will tell you all about the magnetic binder on the tape and how environmental conditions and usage will eventually wear away the magnetic signal deteriorating the tape until it is useless. If you want a further explanation of this click HERE.
There's another equally, if not more pressing, reason to convert your video to DVD now. this has to do with the control track on the video tape. The control track is recorded linearly on the edge of the tape. Click HERE for more information.
