I do. I have two in my house, one in my parents' room, and one in my grandma's room. I don't record things that much, but when I do I record Regular Show, new episodes of T.U.F.F. Puppy when they come on, and some other stuff. P.S.: There's a Lemmy's Land forum topic with the same (almost) exact wording. I didn't write that. So I re-wrote this. That's a weird coincidence... |

I don't really watch TV or have any reason to record/user VCR tapes. I do remember, a long time ago, recording the SpongeBob SquarePants prehistoric special (titled "UGH") so I could watch it. It recorded about ten minutes of the proceeded episode of The Cosby Show as well. |

Oh, it was an accident. It went on too long. |

We had a DVR for quite some time, and we used it extensively. One thing about my family is that we really don't get into much of the newer shows on these days, with exceptions such as How I Met Your Mother - we mostly watch older shows that we like, such as Home Improvement and whatnot. Anyway, the DVR typically had quite a bit of programming recorded, which was always useful when there was nothing else good on. |

What happened to the DVR? P.S.: New rule: If you don't have a VCR, you can talk about your DVR. |

I had a TV with VCR built in, which I used to use a lot until just last year when the digital switchover happened. I then changed to a more up to date TV with Freeview built in. I no longer use VCR and not sure if VCR recording still works here unless there is a special way to connect it to the newer TVs. |

In all honesty, my family has actually [i]never[/i] owned a VCR. Ever. Not even, like, today. But I'm not really sure if I'd use it, because, like Shadow, I don't really watch TV much these days. I'm more of a YouTube guy when it comes to boredom. |
