classic for how good the feeling of sliding one into a vcr feels. dvd insertion is such a dud.

Dud: Accidentally taping over a bunch of cool old videos from early MTV days.
Classic: Those videos eventually showing up on Youtube.

Dud: No DVD versions of any of the International Tournees of Animation. My VHS dubs are getting kind of crunchy.

hey at least it ain't as bad as crap dvds at the video rental place: at least you can WATCH the tapes, as opposed to the dvds which get stuck every five fucking minutes.

altho, crap rental VHS tapes would have like peanut butter & jelly or some shit stuck on them which would then gum the fuck up out of the tape heads.
