But, in the not too distant future, these remaining machines will pass and I will have my archives on a portable hard drive...once I invest the year to transfer them

View profile »While VHS is no longer a mainstream format with a higher profit stream, there are STILL TITLES available for sale and new! You can buy VHS titles from Time/Life, Reader's Digest, Heartland of America, etc. Also, you can often receive a "demo" VHS video from a commercial (or other advertisement) when it can be requested by the consumer in DVD or VHS videotape (for example, the company Sleep Mattress does this among others).
While it's true that the home video market now only supports DVD, Blu-ray, PSP, Download/PPV/Steaming, and portable digital copy, you can occasionally find a program being advertised on DVD and VHS, like, for example, Country Music videos/concerts (from Ernest Tubb's Record Shop, etc).
And blank tapes are still found in most drugstores, like Walgreens, etc.
But, yeah, it's kinda of DEAD for the most part.
