Oh definitely, in the heyday of VHS they were a godsend. They even did their best to keep the films available to collectors in the 90's, even though some had to be truncated by the BBFC.

However, when DVD hit, Vipco kind of dropped the ball and thought they could simply slap VHS transfers onto shiny disc and everyone would be happy. Well....not quite. £20 for a cut, pan and scan of The Burning? No thanks.
