Posted by FYBklyn1959 on Sat Nov 21 21:32:06 2009, in response to Re: Time Warner Cable tells VCR owners to go to hell, posted by Grand Concourse on Sat Nov 21 19:07:07 2009. My very first VCR (JCPenny brand, built by RCA), I had from mid-1987 until mid-1996, when I upgraded to a newer model. It was still working at that time, but the heads (2-head) were beginning to go, I could've used it for awhile longer if absolutely necessary. Besides, I wanted to upgrade (4-head, stereo, 8-event/30-day timer, yada yada). The replacement lasted less than 2 years! Crapped out shortly before I moved from Southern California to South Florida, so I just pitched it and bought a new one after I arrived in SoFla. That one I didn't like that much (got it at Worst Buy), so bought a second one a few months later. It was handy having two, as I was able to copy some things I had taped for a friend of mine. That one lasted until 2001 (3 years). Got another one, lasted 1 year. Got yet another one--4 months! After that, I said the hell with it, and did without until about 2 years ago, when I got the DVD recorder. I think manufacturers send all their shit to South Florida b/c 95% of the ppl living down here are too fucking stupid to complain or do anything about it :( |
