VCR's were largely disposable several years ago. I would think if you
have a very large collection of good stuff you definately want to keep,
you might look into buying a number of VCR's and storing them for
future use. I would think if you were handy it would make sense to buy
all the same model and then cannablilize them for parts as they go
down. Say you bought ten of them. I would think you could keep them
going for a good many years. Heck, up until recordable DVD got going
people were still trading hi end Betamaxes on Ebay because of their
technical superiority to VHS. I thought that was kind of cool in a
way. Lots of folks had original TV broadcasts from the 70's and early
80's with the original commercials. It's your own time capsule.
