In market for one. Have too many VHS tapes to convert into DVD's. Both VHS and DVD player broken! Thanks!

If all you want to do is to transfer VHS to DVD, you might want to look at the Toshiba D-R400. You can pick them up new for @ $100. If you need a VHS player I'd go down to your local Goodwill store and pick up a nice looking one - transfer your tapes to DVD w/it and then donate it back to the Goodwill.
Walmart used to have combo dvd/vhs players for 50 bucks. They may still have them. There are millions of VHS players out there, I see them in yard sales and Goodwill all the time. I have a Super VHS player I have been thinking about getting rid of. It's slightly better than a typical VHS, but when I got
a new TV I didn't bother hooking it up. My old TV was several inches smaller and I hadn't been using with that either, the low resolution just didn't make for a satisfying experience.
I have a few VHS tapes. Just horrible compared to DVD. I actually buy the DVD's insead of sitting through the VHS blur.

..from a Panasonic VHS, to a Toshiba DVD recorder. I have an old analog mixer , and for the poorer quality,. i routed them through it to use the built in "boost ".
I thought they came out pretty good. Home videos, all the kids soccer games etc. Most of the original footge was from a cancorder, later Hi 8 Camcorder.
Until better cam-corders came out. :)
..but I am still happy with the results.
I even have home movies of myself as a child from the 60's , 8MM I guess is what my father had, a Bell and Howell? . The colors are much better than I would have imagined.
I'd love to see films of bro, sis and I when we were kids. I wonder where they all went.... note to self; look for film reels. Thanks.P.S. I still have my parents wind-up movie camera from the 60's/70's (?)! Almost mint condition, quite heavy. Very neat little item. Wonder if it's worth anything.....
Whatever plays to the booboisie.

The funny thing is, 07 was very cool and the sun is going through an unusual low sunspot cycle, so rumblings of global cooling are starting!
