RE: Saranagathi Fwd: Assistance in spreading info on Audio Cassette publications

[Guest guest]

Conversion is a time consuming process. I've some old

recordings of my grandparents that I converted to CDs

for the rest of the family. I am familiar with the

technology and have the resources. The question is

one of time. I can typically do about 3-4 90-minute

cassettes per week. At that rate it would take 2-3

years to convert the collection that Krihna has. If

anyone is interested, I can talk to them off-list

about my setup.

 

Once a set of CDs has been created, I am sure there

are several folks who can easily " burn " duplicate CDs.

 

 

We should also give thought to creating MP3 CDs

instead of regular WAV CDs as they tend to make better

utilization of space.

 

 

Thanks & Regards

Raja Srinivasan
