Best Way to Convert VHS to Digital Video/Video File on PC

[Mastermmm]

I am looking to convert several old home movies that are on VHS to a digital copy I can share and watch on my PC. What is the best way of doing this?

This is great, thanks. It would appear I need an 'Analog to Digital Converter', although when I did a search via Amazon (where I buy most of my products, and generally seem to have honest reviews), the reviews were relatively bad from what I saw. Do you have any suggestions on any specific one?

Did some research at it appears the best I could find was the Elgato Video Capture Device. $80 and seems relatively straight forward.

Yeah I haven't used it myself but I've seen a lot of people that have it. It seems like a good choice.
