Your family home videos are precious to you, so why let them "Fade Away" in time, Why not get them transferred over to DVD format that will last a life time.
Over time old VHS=BETA and all video tapes can break down and the quality of the video will begin to deteriorate.
Once the process of deterioration begins the picture quality of the video will be affected and watching those old films may not be so pleasant.
To prevent this from becoming a problem,transferring the tape to DVD is a way to preserve your families memories "FOREVER".
