Degradation and Deterioration

For years, most of us were under the assumption that our precious memories stored onto magnetic video tape would be safe forever. Recently, however, more and more people are realizing that this is just not the case. Magnetic tape is great for short term play back of our dearest memories, or to relive a historic event. Video tapes deteriorate will deteriorate every year, even if you are keeping them in a box and not viewing them. Your precious memories caught on tape can and will someday be unplayable. With proper care, most video tapes can last up to 20 years with only minor degradation issues. Time, however, is starting to run thin since VHS tapes have been obsolete for over 10 years. In order to ensure that these video memories will be kept preserved, it's best to get them digitally transferred as soon as possible.. DVDs can potentially last you hundreds of years with absolutely no degradation, as the laser never makes direct contact with the disc itself. We’ve seen where people have, unfortunately, waited a bit too long to get their tapes transferred, and as a result they’re left with only a small portion of what they once had.
