In a world of DVDs, CDs, and MP3 players, what do you do with your non-digital — but still very precious — VHS tapes, home movies, LPs, and cassettes? How can you enjoy that classic Janis Joplin tape if your new car lacks a cassette player? How long will it be before those family vacations and other precious moments captured on videotape decay into unwatchable static?
Many products and services are available to convert your old recordings into CDs, DVDs, and other digital formats to improve your access to them and, hopefully, extend their lifespans.
But how well do they work? Are they worth the effort? We¹re going to take a look at some of these solutions in an upcoming report. But in the meantime, you can help us by giving us your take on these digitizing products and services. Share with us your experiences, your questions, and even your horror stories on this thread in our Electronics discussion forum.
Please note: Our Electronics discussion forum is freely available to everyone — even non-subscribers. But you'll need to log in or register for an account using a valid e-mail address. We won't share that info with anyone, but will use it to contact you if we decide to use your story for our upcoming report.
