I keep holding onto my vhs collection because in my ADHD mind , I won't be able to find these random titles I have. I know they're out there and were relatively popular in the 90s, but its hard to find like a "group" of this type of movie. Any ideas ? I'm not good at just searching by title. I need somethibg like "generic weird 90s vhs movies "

VHS degrades a lot over time! I can't imagine watching VHS even if it were brand new on my old CRT with component video even. (Though I think S-Video was max for VHS/VCRs).

Anyway, obviously someone else did a really nice write up already, definitely the way to go. Private tracker sites might even offer more if you know where to look. Some do open registration occasionally too

Everyone says vhs and DVD degrade but I hace zero evidence of it happening to me, even vhs takes that were stored in an uninsulated storage shed for a 5 years.

Yeah, I love my CRT and usually watch my tapes on it. Vhs looks horrible on any flat screen TV otherwise.

Yeah, vhs couldn't go above s video pretty sure !

Ah yeah I have been wanting to do that and also set up my dedicated seeding rig but I just dont know how to get involved in those private ones.
