Which do you find better?
I find DVDs better because they are easier to store and you dont have to wind through to find the thing you want.
DVDs also never lose quality however many times you watch them whereas Videos lose a little bit of quality everytime you watch them...so if you have a favourite video and you watch it 100s of times then you will end up with a really bad quality video.

Yeah but try snapping a DVD in half and you can. But it's much harder with a VHS tape.

Stamp on a DVD = dirty footprint.
Stamp on a VCR = broken plastic

My old one broke and was then repaired about 5 times. The new one has never broke though and I've had it for 2 years. I had the old one for about 10 years I think. DVD players are too new for us to know if they can last that long.
