Each ‘book’ contains five CD’s and a DVD. A CD will hold around 600 megabytes and a DVD over 4 gigabytes – more than all the CD’s put together. But CD’s are a bit easier to burn and read.

Each ‘book’ contains five CD’s and a DVD.
A CD will hold around 600 megabytes and a DVD over 4 gigabytes – more than all the CD’s put together. But CD’s are a bit easier to burn and read.

The CD’s are best for photos and text files while the DVD is best for larger files like home movies and long presentations or slide shows.

Software – Use whatever you wish. There are thousands of freeware and shareware programs out there but if you want something better, more professional, Windows users tend to use Nero™ - and Mac users often buy Roxio Toast™ . These are fully featured programs that make burning discs fast, easy and reliable.

If you are a novice at burning your own discs, you can get your local camera store to do it for you for a few dollars until you work out how to do it yourself.

Top quality archival discs like ours are more expensive. It is best to burn initial test copies on to cheap discs first, check that they are exactly as you want them and then copy the reorganised files to your mylife DIGIBOOK discs for permanent storage.

You may have lots of old photos or slides lying around. If you can’t scan them yourself, most camera stores can do it for you and supply them on disc. In many cases, their software will compensate for fading and dust and improve the images.

The special Wedding DIGIBOOK only has two discs – one CD and one DVD – but they are the absolute best, guaranteed for a hundred years plus. 24 carat gold layered Archival Grade discs in a classic white cover.

Ask your wedding photographer to put images on the CD and the video on the DVD or make them up yourself so that you can watch over and over. Remember, unlike a tape, you can’t wear them out!
Now all the families and friends can have a copy at minimal cost!

Photos are merely digital information, like text, spreadsheets, slide presentations, whatever. It’s like blank paper. What it becomes - book, photo, letter - depends on what you print on it. The DIGIBOOK was originally designed as a photo album but you can write anything you want in them and store it safely.
