Haven't figured out how to set up the video yet.
It's hard to get the Beta max tapes now, I've been thinking about getting one of them new fangled VHS ones

If you can tell me how to get rid of my beta and vhs tapes without polluting the environment, I might consider buying DVDs and a DVD player.

I use both, and I am also going to buy a USB turntable so that I can put all my old lp's onto CD or DVD.
I can't get rid of my VHS I have too many home videos on them, it would cost me a fortune to convert them all to DVD, and apparently DVD's only have a lifespan of 10 years, and then they start to degrade.

I use both.
I use DVDs to to record things I want to keep, because of the superior picture quality and the ability to skip quickly to specific tracks.
But I use VHS tape for things I probably only want to see once, because tapes are cheap and are easily erasable.

both - some good titles on vhs, but I don't miss all that winding
new fangled ones take up less space

I do. I still have a lot of favorites on VHS. I do have a DVD player, so I'm not a total Luddite.

VHS? I still have a black and white television set. Why invest in new technology when the old stuff will do?

We use both--just bought "Little Miss Sunshine" on DVD last weekend--but I can't see myself ever transferring all my
VHS tapes to DVD; the cost would be prohibitive.
Good luck.
