Fun Project

My parents have a bunch of VHS-C tapes from childhood. We tried showing them to my fiance but their VCR is eating tapes and no longer works. I searched "VHS-C to USB" on google and found this cool VCR. It connects to your computer via USB and you can record (digitize) from VHS to .avi. I shot the idea to my parents offering to split the cost. I would love to backup old memories to DVD/You-tube.
