Why Video Cassette Recorders (VCRs)?
According to estimates in 2003, 90% of European homes already have at least one Video Cassette Recorder (VCR) being used in them. And while many people are now upgrading to DVD for movie playback, our tried and tested VCRs still do one thing that DVD players can’t yet do – record your favourite show. Sure there are recordable DVD players about, but they are still very expensive and until the format war has been settled most people would prefer to wait and continue using their video cassette recorders for time-shifting.
