Maybe morelike forty years ago... but yeah, they might have still been running it thirty years ago. They don't make 'em like they used to!
Wait, I guess they don't make VCRs at all anymore!
True, I think my grandparents had an older model because it was definitely in the late 80's when I was a kid. I think you can still get new made VCR's, but like walkman's they are hard to come by.
I just talked the missus out of donating our old sony walkman sport to the thriftstore. It still works! It's gasket is all shot, so I wouldn't get it wet if I could help it, but it can play tapes AND FM radio! AND it's YELLOW!!
That's awesome. I'm still a tape addict cause I love the sound of analog. Even when the tape has some wear and it starts to sound kind of warped. Tapes are making a comeback. A lot of my friends in bands are releasing tapes and selling them. It's slightly cheaper than CD's, and the nostalgia factor makes selling them easy.
