Maybe I'll get my holiday videos trtansferred to DVD now!
Having been through all the twist and turns on this from reels to digital I did the following
Stored all those tiny 8 mm tapes for years and almost never bothered to view one a second time.
then years later
Transfered all my holiday movies to VHS and watched them for a second time (boy did they ever need editing)
then years later
Transferred all those video tapes to DVDs with at least some editing of crap scenes. Only I bothered to watch them as the rest of the family couldn't care less.
then a couple of years later
used my PC to transfer all the DVDs to digital format on the PC where I sorted the files by date. Much easier to find stuff. Still nobody else cared to watch them
Then
Got the bright idea of selecting a few scenes and uploading them to the internet (private or otherwise) and now the whole family can easily watch the few 2-3 min clips of most interest.
Threw out all the reels, tapes, DVDs but kept the PC hard drives (backups)
I wonder what I'll try next
