| DVD
is the next generation
of video storage. With the capacity for high quality sound and
video,
DVD has surpassed video tapes as the new industry standard in
quality
video storage. A DVD is similar to a CD (compact disc), but has 8
to 10 times the storage capacity. DVD is the first video format
that
will truly last a lifetime. All the major manufacturers in video
media (Sony, Pioneer, Toshiba, etc.) have embraced DVD, and together
have
reaped the benefits of DVD being the fastest selling consumer
electronic
in history. |

| Tape
is a great medium
to shoot in but a poor one to store in. Tape heads wear on the tape
during
every viewing and chemical processes are at work destroying your tape
even
while it sits on a shelf. Tapes as little as 10 years old could
be
in serious jeopardy from wear, disintegration, and magnetic
fields.
A DVD, on the other hand, should last 100 years if properly cared
for. And the image is as good on the 100th year as it is the
first
time you watch it. |

| A
DVD has many advantages
over video tapes. Instead of fast forwarding to a specific spot
in
your video, a DVD lets you skip right to a specific point, bypassing
all
of the video in between. The DVD Menu lists "Chapters"
which
are the places where you want to be able to skip to (usually a new
scene
or event). By pressing the MENU button on your DVD player's
remote,
you can access you menus and move to the exact spot you want. |

| One
of the best things
about DVD is the quality. While a normal VHS tape is only
200-300
vertical lines of resolutions, a DVD allows a full 480 lines of
resolution.
This means that your picture is sharper and more detailed. |
