VHS to DVD converter
We have a lot of VHS tapes we'd like to convert to DVDs. Why are converters still so expensive?? Nearly $200. Been about that for several years . Anyone have suggestion where to find one for less?

You won't be able to make copies of these type of VHS tapes by just connecting to a DVD recorder.
Many commercial VHS tapes do have MacroVision which DVD recorders will recognize.. So in that sense it is true that you may not be able to hook a VHS to a DVD recorder and have it work on ALL commercial VHS tapes.
However, there were MANY commercial VHS titles which DO NOT have MacroVision and with those you most likely will not have a problem transferring (all you can do is try them).
If you do run into a tape with MV I would recommend you go to the website I posted in my first post.. They have a lot of info on how to work around MV and other sync problems...
