Can I convert my old entertainment to a more modern format?

Dear sir,

I have a collection of LP albums I was hoping to convert to CDs but can’t seem to find anyone who can help me. Is there such a service available anywhere in Cyprus?

With LPs not being so popular over the last decade, it is understandable that you cannot find someone able to assist you with this matter but after a thorough search we discovered one shop in the whole of Cyprus that can. Chris Olympios in Nicosia will transfer whole albums or single tracks from LPs to CDs for £10 –15).

If you’ve got a similar problem with your video cassettes and want to transfer material to DVDs, Stephanis stores can help. Although they do not actually provide this service, they do sell DVD recorders that can convert any video cassette to DVD. The makes they have are Sony and Phillips (£195).

Chris Olympios: Androcleous 11, Nicosia. Tel: 22-755975 or 99-422989

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
