A few recent posts in another thread got me thinking about this subject.
I still have a bunch of old VHS tapes. Some are officially released things, and I also have a few things that I recorded myself (e.g., the broadcasts of Super Bowls 32 and 33). I also still own a working VCR, which I bought in 2005 or 2006. When it dies, I assume it will be difficult and/or expensive to replace, so I'm thinking about transferring the tapes to a digital format.
One option would be to dub them onto DVD by using my DVD recorder (to which my VCR is connected). However, I'm thinking that converting them to something I can store on my hard drive will be better.
I'm fairly unsophisticated with technology, so something that's simple and easy is extremely important, and I'd appreciate some advice who are more knowledgeable and maybe from some who've done this personally.
I was looking at this product, which is rated very highly with a lot of reviews:
