(1) Price: The price of VHS video contents are much less than DVD videos. Especially Disney VHS. One can find old movies in VHS movies format at the fraction of the price of a movie in DVD video format. Infact at a price of a single DVD movie one may get a good collection of movies in the VHS video format.

(2) Durability: It is true that VHS video does not have the long-standing quality of Video DVD format, but the VHS video tapes can tackle physical harm a lot better. For example, accidental dropping of a DVD may damage it permanently, but a VHS video cassette can survive such an accident & still work.

(3) Convertibility: Cassettes on VHS video format or VHS video tapes or recordings on VHS camcorder can be easily converted from VHS to DVD format through VHS DVD recorder or through the easily available VHS converter soft wares like Diamond Video Capture or Honestech

(4) Wide screen: While watching wide screen DVDs in standard televisions, viewers have to deal with letterbox format or the black bars. However, against this, all most all VHS video contents are a full screen conversion, which makes it suitable for older televisions & viewers who do not like black bars.

(5) Recording: VHS video formats are easier to record & tape than the DVD formats. Moreover DVD recorders are expensive than VHS recorders.

Top 5 Advantages of VHS Tapes Over DVD

1.Price: DVD superiority has caused people to choose the discs over VHS tapes. Consumers can find old VHS movies for less than a dollar at yard sales, flea markets and online at websites like EBay and Amazon. A collection of VHS tapes may cost the same as a single DVD.

2.Durability:VHS tapes do not have the long-standing video quality of a DVD, but they can handle physical harm a lot better. Dropping a DVD disc could cause irreversible damage, but boxy VHS tapes can survive a fall easier and still work.

3.Widescreen:Viewers of standard televisions deal with "letterbox" format, or black bars, while watching widescreen DVDs. Nearly every VHS tape is a full-screen conversion, making it better for older televisions and people who dislike black bars.

4.Recording:VHS tapes are easier to record and tape than a DVD disc. DVD recorders are expensive and the disc must be fully recorded before it can be played back in the set-top devices. Users can play VHS tapes instantly and re-recorded them 100 times; DVD-R discs are limited to one recording.

5.Playing:Accessing a DVD menu may consist of skipping multiple previews, unavoidable FBI warnings and animated menus that may take 30 seconds to load. VHS movies typically play instantly and may include a few easily skipped previews.

Hi guys:) Here are the top 5 advantages of VHS tapes over DVD

Home Entertainment - Low-End Camcorders, High-End Features - Interesting

Hi guys:) If size is a prime consideration, the compacts-8mm and VHS-C, weighing in at two to three pounds-might be preferable. If you have big hands, however, using these small machines can be awkward. A five- or six-pound, full-size VHS model may be more comfortable for a large person. If playback convenience is important, the full-sized VHS may be your best bet. You can play the finished tape in a standard VCR without an adapter (as required for the compact VHS-C) and without hooking the camcorder directly to the TV (as required with the 8mm camcorder). Also, the full-sized VHS units can use standard VHS tapes, which are the least expensive.

Regarding brands: In a survey of experts, many recommended RCA's low-end camcorders in general and singled out Sony in the 8mm format and Panasonic in VHS-C. Many mentioned General Electric's CG818, an 8mm machine, and RCA's CC188, in the VHS-C format, as great buys. You can find both for under $500. Fyi :) Have fun :)
