Digitize your memories

Money Magazine sent about 40 prints and negatives to six popular services. Here's which did best at getting them onto your computer.

Digital Memories Online
Digital Memories Online
digitalmemoriesonline.net

Cost structure:
Prints: 49 cents each at 300 or 600 dpi.
Negatives: 39 cents each at 2,000 dpi.
Minimum order? None.

Turnaround time:
Promises scans within two weeks; delivered ours in four business days.

Scan quality:
The scans had realistic color, though they lacked some detail. Those from negatives were occasionally washed out.

Bottom line:
The scans were good. But the (comparatively) high prices and the laborious multipage order form were turn-offs.

Grade: B-
