Your home videos may not have won any Oscars but they are more precious than any Hollywood blockbuster. A worn-out or damaged copy of 'Titanic' can be easily replaced, but the tapes holding your family memories are irreplaceable. VCRs have a nasty habit of mangling tapes, as we all know, but that's not the main threat to your video memories. The biggest enemy is TIME. You may be aware that video tapes deteriorate a little each time they are played, but did you know that they deteriorate whether or not they are played? Video tape - even if it just sits on a shelf or in a drawer - is in a constant state of deterioration and has a lifespan of only 8—15 years. If you haven't played those tapes in a while, perhaps it's time to check on them! The good news is that we can stop that deterioration dead in its tracks. Allow us transfer your tapes to DVD and those magical family moments will be preserved for generations to come. Once your tapes have been transferred to DVD you'll enjoy the convenience of watching them on your DVD or Blu-ray player. Chapter markers make it easy to find favourite moments and we can add titles, captions, Hollywood style cross-fades and background music. We can even edit out unwanted footage! The finished DVD can also be played on your Mac or PC computer. We can even produce versions suitable for iPod, iPhone, MP3 Players - even YouTube. The time to act is now — don't leave it until something bad happens. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS How Much will it cost? How do I get my video tapes to you? Which Video Formats do you accept?
