The debut of DVD player is a huge success for the consumer market and movie rental markets. From the transition from cassette video to DVD disc is a huge. Now, we all adapted to digital. Our cable TV; television set; and computer of course are literally digital. If you have chance run into blockbuster stores, there are all DVD disc, and you won't see any cassette video ever displayed there. So, I just wonder if there is people still keep their VCR and cassette? That should be an antique collection for witness of transition of digital world.

I actually still use my VCR weekly! My DVD collection isn't huge and when we first moved into this house, all we had was a VCR so of course, we still have VHS tapes, which some I watch on a regular basis. It may seem primitive, but I prefer my VCR over DVD players because your VCR doesn't skip through the best parts!

Most DVD players on the market don't skip anymore either. Sometimes when the DVD's are not properly taken care of, but I have noticed the same thing with a VCR Cassette.

I still use my VCR fairly often too, after I moved from my parents and started acquiring such devices, I opted to go for the machine that will let you play both VCR's and DVD's this option worked best for me. Still have many VCR Cassettes, and if ever I am at a garage sale or the like, I can purchase good ones for very little money.

Cheers.

now hardly i can find a vcr or cassette video. i do have both vcd player and dvd player, but i do not own a vcr. last time my father had it, i remember it is quite bulky in size and the image is not clear.

klwheretogo, I have a dvd player that has a vcr in it too. I can still use my old vcr tapes. If you go to yard sales or flea markets then you might be able to find some good movies on vcr. People are selling their vcr tapes because you can't get them any more. Check it out.
