Re: Patti on the Mike Douglas show...




well i have the three tapes - the biggest problem is they are each 90 minutes
and tho i've only watched the first, patti is on it for over an hour - so
you're talkin about ALOT of dubbing time...

the only thing i'm lookin for video wise is the music video for Glitter -
anyone?

Videos degrade a lot when going from generation to generation.

If you copy a video, then copy the copy, after 3 or 4 generations

it looks really terrible.  It's a lot worse than audio tapes.

So a kind person could get the tapes and then make lots of first

generation copies for people on the list, and that would be great.

But tree thing wouldn't work so well because of generation

degeneration :-)


That could work well if there were a new person interested in doing

a bunch of trades, who didn't have many tapes.  They could get the

video, make a bunch of copies, and then trade each copy for somthing

they don't have.  It would be a way for a new person to build a big

collection of other Patti tapes quickly.  Anyone out there interested?
