that's what this thread is all about, nostalgia!

I used to have TDK EHG tapes, these were better HG tapes than their budget class HS.
my uncut bootlegg movies I used to tape them on EHG tapes to preserve them for many years.

for LP mode recording or audio HIFI recordings on VHS tapes, had to use minimum TDK EHG tapes for HQ recordings.

last year I bought new blank tapes for my S-VHS players.
these were Fuji PRO, JVC XG and their lesser budget class S-VHS tapes JVC SV series.
maybe I have 15x or 20x blank tapes for future recordings from tv.

would be great to own a Digtal VHS player from JVC the HM-DR10000 series.
This was their last HQ machine unfortunatelly it did not have the same cool gadgets like 80-90's S-VHS players.
Final players looked very plasticky and cheap to my likings!

This player is not cheap to buy!
