Those were Independence Day in a nice, double album-like cover. I had three movies decades ago on LD before I gave up on the format. LD was the better of the analog video just was a more expensive way of obtaining movies and playing them. I'd love to see some of this old tech make a comeback. I know I keep seeing newer LCD TVs go in our dumpster because they quit working while my older CRT TV is still rocking it. It's now cheaper to buy the movies than it is to try to get the gear to copy them. I'd have another one except no one rents VHS any more and VHS tapes in good shape are about a buck now.$3 for Disney movies. Not sure what happened to it after she passed but I didn't get it. It was the only deck that could copy any tape, commercial or otherwise, and it also copied those CED discs. Next thing we knew everyone who wanted a tape copied came to Grandma's house.

Everything he threw at the machine it would copy. The guy we talked to on the phone about it said he owned one and loved it. We found a Go-Video HiFi dual deck VCR for like $600. So we sat down with a JCPenny's book and flipped through it. I believe in 1998 my grandmother's Curtis Mathis VCR crapped out on us and CM was long gone. I take that back.I finally got Annie to copy to VHS but it wasn't easy and I'm not sure now exactly what VCR I used to do it. None of the CEDs we had would copy because of copy protection. All we had to start with was mono systems, no stereo sound at all, even the CED players were mono. Shortly after my family invested in VHS movies they wanted to copy the CED movies they liked the most. That works for me.Ĭopy protection was not limited to just VHS tapes. If I want surround I can always look for those older receivers that offer 5.1 surround. Bright, vibrant pictures with stereo sound. I have nothing against HiDef stuff but it's nice to see just how well an old 20' True Flat Screen Sanyo CRT TV and that JVC VCR work together. I use old-school CRTs with it, though, as modern HiDef TVs simply don't get along with it.

I like the fact I don't have to worry about scratches. I still own and use a JVC Hi-Fi VCR from the mid-late 1990's.
