Hello,

	I have alot of 120(250) tapes.  These are all used to archive sound,
graphics, shareware utilities, ect.  I want to know if I can get these
put on CD-Rom.  Most of the pictures, sound and clipart I don't use.  But
every once in a while I have to unback-up certain directories so I can use
the art that's there.  Is there any company that would take all my tapes,
or 650 megs worth off tapes and 'copy it' to a CD-Rom?  This way I can still
get files without un-backing up files on the tape.  Plus all the money I
could save by reusing these tapes.  At $15 a-piece it get expensive.  If
there is a company that does that, how much does it cost?  I really don't
want to pay too much (about $100) for a CD-Rom.  E-mail is prefered.
Thanks,

                                                 Jason
