Is the vcr and the video tape officially obsolete?


Question


Is the vcr and the video tape officially obsolete?


Answer


Not by a long shot. There are millions of VCRs out there. Not everyone has a computer and not all DVD players are the same and of course not all discs are the same. Tape still is reliable and cheap. Of course, lots of camcorders are still being sold that use tape. Most professionals use tape still. Why mess with a tried and true medium? There is lots of talk that tape is obsolete just so people can sell more discs. Yes, tape will go away but not for a long time yet.
