Re: Could VHS make a comeback?
I spent ages transferring VHS tape recordings to DVD. I'm glad I did, as the next generation of TVs had no scart sockets, required by the VHS players.

I did the same with video recordings of the children when they were young, but converted them to .mp4.
(The recordings, not the children…)

and with VHS recorders/players seemingly no longer being manufactured the time is to do this before there is no equipment on which to play the cassettes.

Re: Could VHS make a comeback?
Nope, will never happen. That said there is something that is lost due to the sheer amount of easily accessible films etc at a touch of a button, it is something that is hard to appreciate. Compared to getting the film you wanted from 'Blockbusters'...

I don't watch them either, just HD and UHD.
However, there is no risk of corrupting your content over an SD channel!
