This story really hit home for me. My family bought a camcorder around 1985, and we have dozens and dozens of VHS tapes at home filled with family experiences - vacations, holidays, etc. With my dad and three grandparents gone now, those memories risk being lost in the future because we have not converted the files to digital.
My mom has a VHS-to-DVD converter, but it's labor-intensive. But, I think it may need to become a focused project this year.
Has anyone else converted VHS memories to digital? How did you do it?
