If you have home movies on VHS tape or cam-corder tape, they are probably degrading right now, even as you read this. The more you watch the movies, the faster they deteriorate - and unless you store them in the perfect temperature and humidity conditions, they'll deteriorate even faster.

Don't wait for them to degrade past the point of recovery - have them transferred to DVD now. With careful handling, your DVD home movies won't degrade no matter how often you watch them - and they can be stored without taking up as much room. You can even make multiple DVD copies of your home movies to share with friends and family.
