I now keep all my edited AVI files on terabite hot swappable hard drives. One lives in my computer for easy reference and the others live in a bank vault by the original tapes. That way I always have the best and when the need arises, I can encode for whatever comes along. My old videos are just on tapes which is a pain, but they are safe. the only way to really improve the quality, would be a new video camera with 1920 X 1080 resolution.
