No More VCR's

For those of you who haven't already heard -- VCR's will no longer be produced. 2006 will be the last year for VHS releases. If you have a library of VHS video tapes, you may want to consider selling them and moving everything to DVD, or purchasing another VCR just in case your current one breaks.

A small celebration for the end of the VCR was made at the Digital Life technology show in New York City this past week. I suppose it wasn't really celebrating no more VCR's but rather a celebration of the progression of technology.

I'll be interested to see if the community will rise up in support of the VCR -- either not willing to change to DVD completely, or wanting the ability to continue watching family movies, favorite films, and previously recorded videos on VHS. Any thoughts?
