Voyager time, watching β€˜Caretaker’ on my old VHS tape and on my old CRT too.

I think I’ll commemorate the occasion by re-watching Caretaker this evening.

I’ll also try to ignore that horrific kerning on the cover. πŸ˜†

So here's the thing: I started recording movies on VHS again, like you did back in the day. Now I'd love to put them in a plastic case and print out a nice label that makes them look like a retail film. So I could do the measurements myself and do something in Photoshop, but maybe there is someone out there who already did something I can use with just a few clicks? Not talking about those cardboard VHS boxes, I've found these, but that's not what I'm after. If you know anything, thanks for letting me know.

I found communities that will take off air TV #videocassette recordings with commercials. They also love newscasts, PBS pledge drives, you name it as long as it was recorded off air.

Dead media: found this old Betamax video cassette behind some books on a shelf in my old bedroom back home, looks like some 1980s #DoctorWho taped on it.

Hard to grasp in digital, on-demand era, but being able to record TV to watch later was such a treat back then.
