    Firestreamer-DV

    Reviewed by: Mark, Mon Jan 08 2007

    As compelling as the Firestreamer-DV concept is, I doubt if I'd want it:

    - like all tape drives, it's linear - no random access

    - like earlier data-to-VHS schemes, it's still magnetic tape - possible data corruption due to dropouts, especially over time

    - too much wear and tear on an expensive DV camcorder or deck (I guess a $300 DV camcorder might work)

    - all your DV data archives are worthless without the Firestreamer software

    - a Firestreamer license will only work with one unique device - you cannot access your data on any other DV device

    - what happens if your Firestreamer-licensed device breaks or otherwise becomes unavailable?

    - though a MiniDV tape has more storage capacity than a blank 4.7GB (4.37GB actual) DVD, recordable DVDs are still cheaper per GB of storage
