yep, i have a set top burner that burns in real time ... does an excellent job..
i have had some of these tapes for over 20 years .. kept in ideal conditions .. even then they deteriorate (oxidization, etc)
its a shame ... the outsides go first so the movie is still usually playable ... just be a good idea to archive the rarer titles while i can .
