There are so many reasons to transfer your family’s videos and images from their current deteriorating format into the long-lasting digital format of a DVD.\u00a0 Below are our top 10 reasons for saving your memories today.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 Unique and meaningful gifts<\/strong> One of the most unique and heartfelt gifts we know is a DVD with special family memories.\u00a0 Rather than take a chance on giving a friend or family member another tie or toaster, try giving them something they could not buy for themselves \u2013 access to a special memory that they had forgotten about.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 Preserve your family\u2019s story for your children and their children<\/strong> Your family\u2019s story is unique.\u00a0 And this story has been captured in videos, film and images (like photographs and slides).\u00a0 Preserve your family\u2019s story for your children, and their children.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0 Stop your memories from further deteriorating<\/strong> No matter where you store your videos, film or images \u2013 they are slowly deteriorating.\u00a0 If they happen to be stored someplace hot, like an attic, they may be deteriorating more quickly.\u00a0\u00a0 Take a few moments to gather up your family memories and ship them off to MemoryHub to be preserved.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 Enjoy your memories everyday<\/strong> When your memories are squirrelled away in boxes in the attic or garage or some closet, you are missing out on enjoying those memories.\u00a0 As we say at Memories in a Flash, when you convert your memories to DVD, it\u2019s like \u201cuncorking a bottle of champagne.\u201d<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 Help with genealogical research<\/strong> We are so pleased when we hear that our customers use our services to advance their genealogical projects.\u00a0 As families document the histories of their families \u2013 making use, for example, of wonderful sites like Ancestry.com \u2013 they love being able to incorporate images and memories of the past!<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0 Solve the problem of no longer having working devices to play the memories<\/strong> So often we hear from families who are frustrated to discover that, in order to play their memories originally stored in analog format, like VHS, they need a working VHS player to enjoy them.\u00a0 By converting your memories to a digital format on a DVD, you can enjoy your memories without worrying about whether your old devices still work.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0 Present to yourself \u2013 choose a meaningful memory to preserve<\/strong> While quite a few of our customers convert family memories in order to give gifts to others, we also have thousands of customers who preserve their memories for \u2026 themselves.\u00a0 We love hearing from moms and dads who\u2019ve chosen to celebrate a birthday or anniversary or a promotion by giving themselves the gift of a DVD that preserves a special moment.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0 Get organized \u2013 everything in boxes all over the place<\/strong> If you are like most people, you have your memories stored in a variety of locations around the house \u2013 in a bedroom closet, in a cardboard box in the attic, or in a plastic container in the back of the garage.\u00a0 Or, if you are like most people, you aren\u2019t exactly sure where everything is!\u00a0 We have hundreds of customers who find great personal satisfaction in digging up all of their memories and\u00a0bringing them off to us, so that their unwieldy collection of memories can be stored in a series of nicely labeled and organized DVDs.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0 Take full advantage of new technology<\/strong> As computers (including tablets) and televisions have become more advanced, they have become wonderful showcases for memories.\u00a0 If you have a new large screen computer or tablet or advanced television set up (like an Apple TV), you have the perfect showcase for your memories.<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0 Great family project<\/strong> Finally, every year we get a few cards and notes from families who tell us how grateful they are to Memories in a Flash for facilitating a very meaningful family project.\u00a0 \u00a0These families let us know that the entire family pitched in to collect all of their videos and images and\u00a0brought them off to\u00a0us\"Promo\"<\/a> for preservation on DVDs.\u00a0 But the real fun began when they instituted a regular \u201cfamily movie night\u201d in which they gathered together to relive the wonderful memories of their family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
