VHS or DVD or Both!?

Mark @MNHNJP (25) • Parsippany, New Jersey 4 Mar 23

These days everything is on streaming media. However, I totally would rather pay for and own a DVD or VHS than pay for streaming media. It is not a bash to those who do. That is simply what others prefer. However it has...

all my vhs tapes don't work

lady Di @lady1993 (27221) • Philippines 24 Mar 21

No idea if the problem is with the player or the tape. Some tapes look clean, some of them look moldy. There is audio when I play it, but the video is just static. We're still trying to find solutions. Such a waste if...

Do you still have VHS tapes and a VCR?

Bella @Bella128 (2471) • United States 22 Jul 16

I read an article today saying that the last company that still manufactures VCRs will be stopping production this year. It's amazing to think that brand new VCRs were still being produced because I honestly don't think there are...

Non-Disney fairy tale cartoons

santuccie @santuccie (3384) • United States 5 Jan 16

When I was young, my parents had some presumably low-budget, non-Disney fairy tale cartoons on VHS. They were pretty funny, but likely not very successful. I've tried searching Google for every known publication of a title, as...

EnslinPorter @EnslinPorter (1718) • Philippines 29 Jan 11

I was wondering about this for some time. We have some VHS and VCD movies. Because the VHS is phased out, do you think it's legal to download the movie online? Does having a copy of a movie in original cassette or VCD make your...

Do you remember when your family got their first new vehicle? What about television? VHS? Microwave? Computer? Gaming console? Do you remember much about these things and if so, share some details?
