    Features
    Did you know that video cassettes are under constant threat from all kinds of dangers?
    Just by watching your beloved VHS videos, the recordings gradually lose their quality ?
    brightness, contrast, and color become continually weaker and the picture quality suffers.


    VHS cassettes provide enough space to store a complete full-length movie but the image and sound quality of a video cassette is much worse than that of a DVD or Blu-ray Disc. Each time you play back the video, the tape's magnetic layer wears down until it becomes completely useless!

    Are your tapes chewed-up and the video damaged? Tape recordings are anything but safe: The average shelf life of a VHS cassette is around 15 years and that's under optimum conditions!
    DVDs & Blu-ray Discs offer many advantages: In addition to the large disk space, long service life, and small size, they do not have any sensitive mechanical components which makes them ideal for archiving! Watch your videos in the best digital image and sound quality over and over without losing the quality. A DVD or Blu-ray Disc is incredibly easy to use. With the clearly arranged menus, it is no longer a problem to quickly navigate through individual movies or scenes without the hassle of fast-forwarding and rewinding!
