I had some old reel-to-reel home movies that were about 55 years old. I had previously tried to have them converted to DVD by a local company, but was told they were too old and degraded. As I had nothing to lose by trying Southtree, I boxed them up and mailed them. The process was very simple; just put the bar codes on and send them in the box that was included. I was very surprised and pleased that my home movies were able to be preserved! The quality of the DVD is remarkable considering what they had to work with! I am extremely satisfied!
