I don’t have too many but on occasion I’ve bought a used VHS (like an old cartoon series, the Houndcats) via Ebay or
something and converted it to DVD by hooking up my VHS
recorder to my DVD recorder.
A friend of mine sometimes records long radio shows on VHS
tapes though he can admittedly do the same on his DVD rec.
Also I dubbed some highlights from cartoon fan conventions I’ve been to, highlight tapes from 1998-2002 that were not and probably never will be released on DVD (I converted and uploaded clips to youtube). So having the VHS player can
come in handy.
