VHS is now completely dead

Saw this online and thought "Huh, thought this format had been dead for years..." Guess it finally is.


The last of the somewhat big distributor of VHS films has shipped the beloved (and hated) tape for the last time.

Ryan J. Kugler, co-owner of Distribution Video Audio, Palm Harbor, Florida said "It's dead, this is it, this is the last Christmas, without a doubt."

However, VHS had an amazing run and I'm sure it is a testament to the fact that DVD will also be here for many years. When a format becomes as main stream as DVD and VHS it takes some time to kill them completely off.
