DVD+R Shelf life.
I just had alot family 8mm film from the sixty's converted to DVD+R because
I didn't want to let the film get to old to be viewed anymore. It cost me $461. Can anyone tell me what the shelf life would be. I am using Ridata DVDs. Larry |

It's goodadvice to make backups, and since this is valuable, irreplacable family film that cost a small fortune to convert to DVD, I'd say make several (and backup to hard drive permanently if you can spare the room). -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mike Kohary mike at kohary dot com http://www.kohary.com Karma Photography: http://www.karmaphotography.com Seahawks Historical Database: http://www.kohary.com/seahawks ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mike Kohary |
