The elders had to rewind the movies after watching
I still own a VCR and a vast collection of VHS tapes. I mean, I also pay for streaming services, but without the old 90s commercials for Disney World and previews for movies that were released in 1995, the movies just don’t hit the same.
How are the VHS cassettes holding up? 30+ years I think is past the average lifespan, do they jam/tear/etc more than they used to?
I convert them to USB for people as a side line. Quite rare to find one that won't play. Even the ones where the spools are white with mold still play ok.
