Hope you all enjoy the holidays!

Do you, or someone you know, have old VHS tapes you'd like digitized and saved in a format watchable on a computer? I offer that service!

The rate is $20/tape, plus the cost of the storage device required to transfer the data unless one is provided. The standard resolution at which the recordings are digitized is 1440x1080 @ 59.94fps.

It should go without saying that this can only be done to home-made videos, not commercially made tapes.

Also keep in mind that if you have a large amount of tapes it may take a while to get them back to you, as the recording has to be done in real-time. Any tapes that could harm my recording setup will likely be refused (if they are moldy, damaged, or modified in some way.)
