All I get from watching VHS is nostalgia. Reminds me of everything I bought or watched when I was about 13 or 14.

So I see what you're saying in that sense but in reality VHS sucks. You have to adjust the tracking, you have to rewind, the more you watch a tape the crappier the quality gets, the sound sucks, etc.

Rewinding and quality aside, I've never found it necessary to adjust tracking on any but two or three tapes. :p

Auto tracking FTW.
