Guess it had to happen. I remember how 25 years ago we thought the VCR was as good an audio format as we could have then if we were on a budget as I was back then and yes, I’m talking Hi-Fi video and the quality was very good for those days, it certainly beat audio Cassette and Hi-Fi video was a handy medium to dumb CD’S onto, record Talking Books onto and so forth.
I wouldn’t mind betting that other list members found uses for the medium, even logging radio broadcasts and such were to be considered with a Hi-Fi video recorder as you could record 8 hours or even more of high quality audio onto one VCR cassette, course that’s old hack now with SD cards and the like but it was oarsmen back then. > On 23 Jul 2016, at 4:59 PM, Iaen Cordell <[email protected]> wrote: > > as I am currently using my VHS VCR as a $900.00 clock, the below article was > of interest. > Cheers > IC > http://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/world-s-last-remaining-vcr-company-cease-production-month-n614836 > > ********** Those of a positive and enquiring frame of mind will leave the rest of the halfwits in this world behind.
