Transfer Film/Video/Audio to DVD/CD/Memory Stick/External Hard Drive

Marilyn from Copy Catz Video Editing and Transfer Services

My personal preference would be a memory stick or an external passport drive (small and usb powered).
Memory sticks or external hard drives are now the most ideal media on which to transfer your old video/audio/film reels/vinyl/slides/photographs etc. DVDs and CDs are also good to use, however who knows how long it will be before they too are outdated. With a memory stick or ext HD, old media is converted to a file format which means that you can copy it as many times as you want and store it in as many different locations as possible such as other external Hard Drives, directly onto your computer, or even in the Cloud or Dropbox etc. Be sure to make multiple copies of your precious memories and preferably keep copies offsite so that you can never lose them!

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
