Digiommel-interesting articles on video & audio archiving

The articles are very detailed, this particular one goes into detail about different VCRs dropout compensator circuits:

There are some good write ups on EIAJ and u-matic.

Thanks for posting.

Interesting that random drop-outs are reduced by repeated playings.
