RE: RIP - VHS
Blu-Ray won because it was developed by Sony and all the major motion picture studios chose Blu-Ray in the end because of Sony...
My mom had one of those VHS tape rewinders... and it used to snap the tapes because it wouldn't know when to stop and we would just return them like nothing ever happened, lol.
I have an older Tivo if anyone wants it...just pay the shipping and it's yours... I got it when I moved into my house but the DVR revolution began, and I have no need for it now... NFP, your mom wants it maybe? lol

RE: RIP - VHS
I have a sh*t load of VHS tapes, still watch em to. Gues I'll have to put em on to disc.
The players that your going to throw out will eventually end up being sold for triple their original price in a 50 or so years as antiques. Everything eventually goes the way of the Dodo, however I think technology has overdone itself these days. Eventually we are just going to say 'No thanks'
By the way, I hate I-pods, nothing against MP3 players, just hate the hype & seeing the sheep walking around with white ear plugs while texting on their friggin mobile phones.
