Of course there other brands of VCR that have S-video in/out, but the JVC is one of the best.

Boy, SVHS VCRs have come down in price! I agree on JVCs. I have an older SVHS JVC that is made for video editing. I like the ET function too.

Yeh, with the introduction of D-VHS and DVD-recordable, the only way for JVC to (hopefully) maintain the popularity and market share of its S-VHS decks is to cut price. And that's a good news to us, the consumers.

I guess that begs the question why we need VCRs anymore except to just transfer the tapes to a CD or DVD.

I use to and sometimes still do light shows and project wierd computer graphics like fractals and other psychedelic images on video for local music bands. A combination of live and taped images. I have been doing that since the late 70's, of course back then we used film loops and heavy colored water on overhead projectors and those big betamax video machines.
