Kasettilamerit (tape lamers) is a digital archeology team founded in 2011, with the intention to archive data off of magnetic and optical media.
"We archive any kinds of old media regardless of the platform. Over the years we have archived data from tapes and floppies from such platforms as Commodore 64, VIC-20, Amiga, Atari ST, IBM Compatibles, CP/M, Spectrum, Spectravideo, Apple II and Amstrad CPC. It doesn’t matter whether the media is professionally duplicated or written at home, we can create an archival quality image with the copy protection intact.
We have helped the Software Preservation team archive thousands of original titles, not to mention all the homebrew Commodore 64 turbo tapes, which were the original motivation for founding our group.
The images we create are delivered back to the persons who loaned the media, and if so agreed, to other archival projects / groups. We negotiate the terms of disclosure with each media owner individually and always respect the privacy and confidentiality of the material. "
