1. If you can convert the DVD to an editable format on your Mac, you will lose quality.<BR>
2. Tape has been shown to have greater archival quality. I have seen DVDs that have not lasted a year.<BR>

in one step (concerts, etc.). And not to wait one hour to get the<BR>
recording on my Mac. And then I CAN edit (so I don't think it's a trend<BR>
for folks not wanting to edit).<BR>
The hard disk is more convenient and secure. The tape will disappear<BR>
like audio.<BR>
