Where would I take old videos to be converted to DVD?  We don't have the hardware to do it ourselves.

Hmmmm... ™

I'd think that'd be classed a specialist service, and shops that offer it as a service may be few and far between Sad

I've found a few places that might be worth looking at..

The Shoebox price is $30 per tape, so if you are doing lots of tapes, it would be worth looking at something like

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10992395&findingMethod=rr

(not that I'm encouraging you to go to Walmart, but it's the only store I know that would sell one, and is up the road from you...)

Thanks, Matt.

Ouch.  What I have are six dance recital videos.  I took a little trip down Memory Lane last week and watched what I consider the highlights (that'd be my dances and DD's dances).  I haven't watched them in a while, but I'd love to have them converted to DVD.
