    The remote for our first VCR had a cord on it.

    Good old top-loading VHS with real channel selectors and a mechanical tape counter.

    Even better. It was a split system, so you could take the recording part with you and connect it to a camera and battery pack! (or more likely, an extension cord)

    How about buying Maxell blank cassettes and recording mixed tapes from records.

    Um... You mean like the nine drawers full I have in the other room? including my several years worth of Dr. Demento radio recordings? :)
