GoVideo DDV3110 Dual Deck 4-Head Hi-Fi VCR
The only VCR you will ever need..
VCR's may not be the hottest of items now with the DVD age alive and strong, but I have always found a need for a VCR and after going through a half-dozen or so in the last 10 years I finaly found one that I am very happy with. The GoVideo DDV3110 Dual Deck is a graet addition to my electronics family.<br /><br />I can understand why some aren't happy with it, yes it has trouble copying some of the newer VCR tapes that have the copy protection on it, but so do most if not all VCR's and DVD players you hook to any other device. That is the point of copy write protection. There are machines that do that but you can't expect this one to as well. It is great though in taht it's HI Fi, has a lot of great options like slow speed shuddling, auto tracking, commercial skip, indexing so you can easily find where you started recording a program, one touch recording, you can have two tapes in at once so you never have to worry about a tape running out and so much more. This is a great machine and one of the best purchases I have ever made. I own a lot of VCR tapes full of programs and various things I have recorded over the years. Now with a machine like this I can put a lot of the tapes together and save space as well as hook up all my other devices into it through the various A/Vholes. It's really a fine piece of equipment. I haven't had a problem or complaint with it yet.<br /><br />Sure it would be great if it did record stuff you rent from a video store but very few vcrs do. Why would this one be any differnet? Just because it has a one touch recording option from one tape to another doesn't mean it should do something that is illegal. Bottom line is, this is the perfect vcr to replace all the vcrs in the house once and for all. You only need this one as it will fill all the needs and in the best quality a VCR has to offer. If you are looking for a VCR to copy those tapes you rent from the video store then yes perhaps you should avoid this but if you want it for anything else that a VCR can offer in copying and watching needs this is the only one to ever get. You will be quite happy with all the options it has to offer and the ease of use.ng else that a VCR can offer in copying and watching needs this is the only one to ever get.
