Does anyone here still actually use a VCR?

03-03-2005, 04:59 PM

I haven't used a VCR for what seems like years. I have a shitload of VHS tapes just sitting around collecting dust.

Does anyone here still use a VCR or has it pretty much all switched over to DVD?

I still do. VHS tapes are extremely cheap now, and it's not like the quality is terrible. I buy things on VHS when I only kind-of want them but don't think they warrant a $20 (or more).

I unhooked my vcr a long time ago. I still have my laser disc player hooked up, but it's pretty much worthless now too. My dvd collection is much bigger than my vhs collection ever was.

I think it depends on if you're a big movie buff or not, I'm definitely the latter. Besides, I couldn't possibly buy a COPS DVD with a straight face.

I have over 600 movies on VHS and another 150 disney movies on VHS so I use my vcr when I want something classic to watch. But mostly it just gets used for the kids. All the more recent (past 2-3 yrs) everything I've bought has been on DVD. (they take up so much LESS ROOM!!!)

edit: almost forgot... most of my porn collection is on VHS lol so yeah I guess I do use the VCR occassionally

I do. I have tons and tons of VHS tapes. I'm too lazy to burn them all and most of them I doubt I would watch, even though I won't throw them out. I also have a lot of home/personal videos that are on VHS. I really, really need to burn all those on to DVDs and stick the tapes somewhere safe as a back up. I'll probably do that right after I clean out all my closets and tupperware cabinet (never).

The tuner is out on the TV in the bedroom so I have to use the VCR tuner so the TV works. Every once in awhile I'll stick an old tape in there and watch it. Mostly just fun, goofy stuff that you can pick up at the dollar bin at Target like old tv show episodes

only when I want to rent something that I cant find on dvd.

SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

My parents in law asked me to record a program for them... I couldn't be bothered setting up the VCR to record off-air so I just chucked a blank DVD-R disc into the DVD recorder.

The only time I use the VCR now is to transfer from analog VHS tapes to digital DVD-RAM discs.

I have an s-vhs machine that I use for making demo tapes for clients when doing editing work for them. Sometimes clients actually want the finished product on VHS. It isn't exactly overwhelming popular. With the arrival of HD tv, I think you will see these things disappearing pretty quickly.
