Comment on My Grandma Was a Fed – Lessons from Digitizing Hours of Childhoodparent

Comments

The author managed to find a decades-old Digi8 camcorder in working order.

M-disc is readable by a standard DVD-ROM/Blu-Ray drive.

The industry has manufactured many, many more DVD-ROM/Blu-Ray drives than it ever made Digi8 camcorders, and they have fewer moving parts.

If you're concerned with finding an M-disc burner, I share the same concern.

If you're concerned with finding an M-disc reader, there's less reason to worry than with any other archival media formats.
