Although magnetic tapes do not possess explicit expiration dates, they are subject to wear and degradation over time.

Formats such as VHS and Betamax generally have a lifespan of 10 to 25 years.

Factors contributing to deterioration include exposure to extreme temperatures, humidity, dust, and magnetic fields.

Additionally, frequent playback and recording, along with inadequate storage conditions such as sunlight exposure, can hasten the degradation process.

To safeguard your valuable memories, it is advisable to take action before it becomes too late.

The industry norm involves pricing based on the volume of items undergoing digitization, however, my strategy sets us apart.

I solely bill for the digitization that is accomplished successfully, indicating that any blank sections on a videotape or inaccessible reels will not get charged.

This guarantees that you receive the best value and are only billed for the digitized material that is accessible for viewing.
