I got a good used VHS player at Goodwill for $5. Problem is, those tapes were recorded using old technology. The best of them might be at 400 lines of resolution, or about 1/6 megapixel. The lowest quality TV you watch now is 480 megapixels. Home recorded VHS was about 200 lines of resolution, so it is even worse when compared to high def you are used to watching on a modern TV.
