They’re in a box under a bed somewhere. I’m not sure how they’ve survived about 8 or 9 house moves over the last 20 years when it’s been about that long since I had a VHS player!
Pretty sure my dad took the opportunity to throw them all out when packing up my room so my grandparents could move in after Hurricane Katrina. This is not helpful info for you but I am still bitter about it!
I'm having a similar internal debate with myself on what to do with the 2k+ DVD's/BluRays I have. Do I keep them? Should I just throw them out? Would anyone actually buy them? These are the burning questions.
I still have the Disney movies and old home movies we made on our sweet, sweet cam-corder (yes it was the giant one where you could put actual VHS tapes in and record on those). Everything else went to Good Will ages ago when my parents decided to declutter.
I have a VHS to DVD component, and it even has HDMI out to my flat screen TV. I have digitized some VHS of live concert footage and other things that will never be online or released on physical media. Most of the tapes I should probably put out at a yard sale or at the flea market.
I thought the vhs route would be easier to start with than our collection of dvds. We have the mindset that some stuff we have could go away or never stream but when was the last time we actually watched those specific ones
Charity shopped 100s of them about 20 years ago, mainly because they were becoming a burden every time I moved home. I dread ever moving again with my record collection!
Sold them all to a secondhand shop for pennies on the dollar. Never regretted it for a second. I loved not having them take up space and getting to pick up new copies on DVD. I didn’t have anything rare in my collection.
