In the early 80's, I bought a Panasonic VHS recorder/player (with a keyboard for typing titles) that came in two large pieces (carried one over the shoulder for recording)...that cost $2,500.
Now, even a low-end smart phone provides a much higher quality recording, plus so many other features...at a fraction of the cost.
A form of "Moore's Law."
