We discussed the conversion of VHS to DVD format at a copyright session at last year's (or the year before) convention, and we were told that it is ILLEGAL to copy from VHS to DVD or back, because of the change in format. (You can, however, make a backup copy on the same format) I will look in my book about "copyright for teachers and librarian."
It's a pain, because I, too, have had to replace several DVD's already.
