Ok, so you\u2019re converting your VHS to DVD<\/a>, right? Or are you? Here at Video 2 DVD Transfers, DVD isn\u2019t the only digital format we\u2019ll transfer your home movies on to, so we thought we\u2019d look at the other option we offer \u2013 that way, you can make an informed decision when it comes to keeping your memories secure.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We don\u2019t believe that one format\u2019s better than another. So don\u2019t expect some epic grudge match here; this isn\u2019t Ali and Foreman rumbling in the jungle! Really, choosing DVD or USB all boils down to your own individual preference, and how you intend to watch or store your films.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with what is, compared to USB, the granddaddy of film formats\u2026<\/p>\n

Choosing DVD<\/strong><\/p>\n

DVD \u2013 or digital versatile disc, for you fact-hounds out there \u2013 is probably the most widespread and common format out there. Even when pretenders to the crown, such as Blu-Ray, have surfaced, still DVD remains dominant.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s a pretty decent testament to the format. And there\u2019s a good reason for it \u2013 DVDs are cheap to produce, offer awesome video quality, they\u2019re easy to use, and simple to store. Oh, and they\u2019re tough as nails. What\u2019s not to love?<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re planning on making a big evening out of watching home movies with the family, DVD is a pretty safe bet. Imagine gathering around the TV, popping the disc into the tray, and pressing play. Sorted \u2013 your movie\u2019s now playing on the same screen where you watched Johnny Depp the night before!<\/p>\n

Even if you\u2019re not making a big night with a big show, the fact that DVD players are so common means you\u2019ll be able to find one \u2013 if not more \u2013 in any house, so you can always take your movies around to friends and family, safe in the knowledge that there\u2019ll always be a way to watch them.<\/p>\n

The main issue with a DVD is, as a physical medium, you may only choose to have one copy made \u2013 and that\u2019s your lot, unless you order more, or hire a pro to duplicate the contents.<\/p>\n

In Short:<\/strong><\/p>\n
