My wife and I have had all these VHS and HI 8 cassettes lying around for years. Try finding a player to convert them on Amazon or eBay...good luck. We were about to throw them away thinking we would never find a way to convert them and somebody told us about Lotus Media. We found them on Amazon. Simple process. Mail them off. When they are finished you get an email with the download instructions. I think from the time they received they received the cassettes until we were able to download them might have been 3 days? It was quick. The price was very fair. Far cheaper than buying a machine and doing it ourselves. A simple, cost-effective way to transfer the tapes to MP4. Thank you Lotus media. We can watch our 32-year-old wedding video as an MP4 and show it to our grown children.

I had a 25-year-old VHS tape of 8mm family movies originally shot 1957-65 but I no longer own a VHS player to view the tape [or maybe it's being used as a boat anchor somewhere]. I wanted to get the tape digitized to protect it forever and make it easy to copy for other family members.

I'd looked at Legacy Box but, from what I could tell, it was going to cost me a minimum $79. I decided to take a chance on this Amazon deal for Video Tape Transfer Service by Lotus Media and ... WOW! There are some forms that need to be completed [nothing too time-consuming] and I did have to make a trip to the post office which is the only reason I wouldn't give it a full 5-stars for "Ease of Use".
I anticipated the turnaround being a good three weeks. I was quite surprised and happy to see the download link of the transferred file sent to my email in less than a week. I was able to easily download the file and dupe it five times for my siblings. Sometimes, when converting files, there's a slight degradation in image quality. Not this time. The digitized file was every bit as clear and sharp [well, as much as 65-year-old source technology would allow]. Still waiting on the VHS tape to be returned but not worried about that. I ran slightly over the total number of hours that could be transferred for the sale price so I paid an additional $14. Total bill: Right about $35, I highly, highly recommend this service. And do it today or you may regret not preserving these precious memories sooner! - Pete.

They brought back to life videos that hadn't been seen in 25+ years....great service simply amazing

I mailed a 32 year old VCR tape to Lotus, not really sure what to expect as I had never converted this type of media before. Wow, what a great service this is! I loved that I could order this through Amazon as I hate to put my credit card on random websites. So, it is convenient. Before I could even check to see if the post office had delivered the tape, I got an email from Lotus informing me that my product was already available to view and download! That was a simple process as was sharing it with other family members. I am very pleased and will probably dig out some other old tapes for conversion by this company. I am happy to be able to use a small business rather than a giant corporation!

The transaction was simple and performed exactly as advertised. My correspondance with Lotus was handled professionally and to my complete satisfaction. The transfer of my VHS tape was flawless and I must admit I had my doubts. The tape was 25 years old but the transfer results were perfect!
