I bet you think vinyl sounds better to, don't you??

To be fair, he didn't bring up quality, just conveince.
Also, transferring a vhs too a bluray disk isn't going to make the quality better.

[darthjoker]

seriously....this is f'ng sad



this is a sign...when its tough to find a VCR in a shithole like Guatamela (no offense Darth), its time to move on



HDTV and Blu-Ray all the way....progress, bitches

No offense taken.
and yeah but sometimes is just easier to erase 20 times a videocassette. LOL
and apparently I am not the only one.
BTW, many music artist are tying to bring back LP, I hear some are releasing both CD and LP. I cant remember who these are. I think Katy Perry is one of them.

Indie bands when i was in highschool were putting out albums on vinyl, that was 10 years ago, the mainstream music industry is now catching up because since the internet got big they actually got more behind the trends.

Amazing how a simple hair change could effect ones overness. Dolph can still wrestle but when he lost the blond look there was nothing about him that made him unique. I once mistook him for Dibiase

I thought that Evan Bourne had suddenly beefed up. You wouldn't think it would make that much of a difference, but...

yeah, dolph with short hair and not blond is not Dolph, is just a generic CAW from any wwe game. LOL

Totally.

Vinyl does sound better, if you've got good equipment and are doing nothing but listening to music. I listen to music all the time, but usually while I'm doing other things. Good quality MP3s are usually more than good enough, especially if you factor in things like road noise or other distractions, with the bonus of being super-portable. Plus, records cost a damned fortune. Anyways, "pretty good" works for me, mainly because I don't want to deal with the added expense and difficulty of getting that last 10% of quality.

what, sitcoms getting better ratins on other channels. 1st 1/2 hour they will lose viewers due to BBNGTHEORY which'll make 'em switch back....

The fuck did bobby roode cut his hair, he looks like a developmental nerd in fcw.

it's not like Steve Austin's progression from semi-long to crew cut to bald. and Roode's not balding even- i had really long hair , but it was starting to thin so i just cut it and shaved my head.

yeah i have a VCR/DVD recorder. it's pretty cool for when i want to convert an old ppv(with original music and crowd reactions) to DVD. i could record the shows on DVD but they're really not worth the price of the disc. i can buy a 6hr tape at the dollar store and record over it like 50 fukn times before i have to replace it. i already feel i'm getting ripped off enough by my sat provider, not paying for anything xtra anymore.

i said it before, i'll say it again. videotapes- when they're stopped and pulled out they remain in the exact place [scene] you stopped them at. plus the whole rerecording thing. i love 'em. DVDS, however, will not always be at the very scene you stopped at if pulled out- plus no rerecording. inferior product!

Rood looks generic with that haircut. Kaz I can get behind but Rood should have kept the look, it fits that heel persona he has

i hate Kaz's hair. it just looks ... juvenile.

Vinyl and cassette tapes are/were great. Vinyl will always be louder than this new tech. Cassettes for cars were better for handling too.

Are you a main eventer on the number 2 wrestling promotion in the country?
Austin was a midcarder when he had long hair, and him shaving it didn't make him look like Mr. Generic

not really, but crystal clear video/audio quality doesn't make smackdown a better show.

Hey...if they decided to make smackdown a good wrestling show again, you'd want it to have better quality!

not really. it's not like i'm going to watch the show more than once anyways. the quality on a VHS is good enough to enjoy a tv match or show.

[The Great Grape]

can't see it. roode's title reign has been great, storms rise to challenge him was also pretty damn good. the x-division had a good run as aries eventually cleaned out the division. bully ray is awesome, joe & magnus have added some spark to the tag division and that lethal lottery tournament that put them together was fun, jeff hardy vs angle feud was fun too.

I think the show doesn't have enough credibility or interest depth for my liking. I like Magnus, for example. (Though I probably prefer his RKK stuff to TNA's.) I'm cool with seeing him get a tag title run. But the tag division has been neglected over time. There just aren't many compelling teams. Aries is cool but the X-Division is all but Double A & his bitches. Similar story in the Knockouts division with Gail & Mickie (who unlike AA aren't even compelling characters.)

I do love Bully Ray. And I'm glad to see Storm and Roode get solo chances. Though I confess that their chemistry/enjoyment factor as a team has not been matched by anything I have seen from either so far.

Jeff Hardy still sucks, to me. And anything involving a Bischoff is pretty much guaranteed to be God Awful.

If they were finding their niche, I might more consider saying,"Alright, I just don't enjoy it." But most of the speak I've seen has not only their ratings & PPV buys tumbling, but now reports are their house shows are further struggling.

Honestly as it is presented, I don't think TNA has much appeal toward picking up new fans, certainly domestically speaking. And apparently is having an increasingly difficult time holding on to the ones it already possessed.

agreed....bet lbo still has some 8 tracks floating around his place

[The Great Grape]

No eight tracks for me, but I too still use a vcr to tape things. The Sony VCR/DVD is close to a decade old and still hanging in, so I figure why not run with it. No sense spending in an area that doesn't really require it.

I haven't bought video tapes in many years. But I still have some from back far as the 80's. Virtually all still play quite well to perfectly. Their main practical disadvantage is their weight and the space they take up.

Same thing with me. I find the VCR tapes easier to record than the DVDs. With the VCR you just push the record button and it does it's thing. With a DVD recorder there are alot of steps one has to do. Also when you stop a tape on a VCR it remains right on the scene that you stopped it on when you play it again. They still have drawbacks but I find myself recording on VHS more than I do DVD's

At today's Impact tapings, the word about the "new concept" that Hulk Hogan was been saying would "change the business" and be "momentum-shifting" is something where TNA will be calling on their fans to film TNA wrestlers whenever they may encounter them, in or out of the ring.

It almost sounds like a TMZ-style "paparazzi" thing, with people trying to film the every move of the TNA wrestlers.

Early reports are that the idea isn't going over very well with the TNA locker room, with one person pointing out that Hogan is perhaps the last person who should promote something like this with the way his own personal videos are coming back to haunt him these days.
