@woodpunk That's a really dumb idea... Betamax is much more obscure...

@biglesp You may be confusing my motivation here. I'm not seeking maximum obscurity: I just want the movies in the format I enjoyed them in.

@woodpunk I was being more jokey / playful that serious. Enjoy collecting VHS. I've still got many Star Wars, Doctor Who and Star Trek VHS in the loft.

@biglesp I should have added the big grin emoji that reflected the face I was making as I typed 😁

@woodpunk :D I owned a Betamax in the 1990s. My dad bought me it from an old video shop. I had SO MANY Betamax tapes, including Star Wars rental. Sadly they are now all gone.

@woodpunk NO, don't do it.

Betamax on the other hand, much better quality and rarer and more expensive. Win Win WIn :)
