I bought my first VCR in 81-82. They had Betamax, or VHS, they also had laser discs but they were not that popular. The things weighed like 30-40# and like you said cost around $1000, and for a wireless remote you had to pay extra. You had to sign contracts and pay membership fees to rent movies, and the selections were not that great. Wow I feel so old...

Does not this word sound like the call of the death bird at Midnight? You dare not say it since the pictures will fade into dark shadows, ghostly dreams will rise from your heart and feed on your own blood
