Small but mighty: the power of a USB stick

VHS to digital (via a USB stick) is the recommended method for storing memories for longevity reasons, making it possible for later generations to enjoy the videos. This versatile digital file lets you make edits, add music, cut segments – whatever you choose! You can also upload the video and audio content to the cloud, or plug the USB stick into a Smart TV, for sharing with friends and family.

Copying VHS to DVD (.mp4 format)

Tapes to Digital recommends converting VHS to digital via a USB stick – read the section above to find out why. However, for customers who haven’t yet upgraded to a Smart TV or prefer more traditional viewing methods, copying VHS to DVD is a great alternative.

When you come to us for copying VHS to DVD, you can expect excellence. We use one DVD per 1.5 to 2 hours of content, and we never use cheap DVD recorders, burning a high-quality digital file instead.

Plus, we only charge you half-price (rounded to the next dollar) for tapes below 5 minutes, with bulk order discounts available.

For customers interested in copying VHS to DVD, please be aware that we don’t lock or copy protect our DVDs.
