Here is some interesting facts you may not have known about Hi8, 8mm, Digital8, & miniDV's:

Lifespan of Tapes 
Video tapes should be stored vertically out of direct sunlight, in a dry, cool dust-free environment. As with any tape media, they will eventually deteriorate and lose their recorded contents over time, resulting in a build up of image noise and dropouts. Tapes older than 15 years may start to show signs of degradation. Amongst other problems, they can become sticky and jam playback units or become brittle and snap. Such problems will normally require professional attention.

However, the 8 mm format and MiniDV format is no more prone to this than any other format. In fact, the metal particle technology used with the Video8 formats is more durable than the metal evaporated type used with MiniDV. Hi8 tapes can be either of Metal Particle (MP) or Metal Evaporated (ME) formulation.

Because 8 mm and MiniDV tapes use a metal formulation, they are harder to erase than the oxide tapes used with VHS, SVHS and Betamax tapes. As such, carefully stored, they are less susceptible to magnetic fields than the older formats

But, as said before, they all eventually deteriorate even in the best storage, and that's why I am here to help you. DVD's last 100+ years, so let's restore your memories on a format that will last a lifetime!
