I'll be happy if the earth is still supporting life in 20 years. I don't imagine I'll be worrying about playing old movies.

Only for specialized functions. It is doubtful that manufacturers will still produce the DVD/VCR combo as both will be obsolete and those who still have a need for either will likely want the individual unit, for use as an individual tool.
In 20 years I expect the concept of movie/data storage to be a non-issue. Expect localized data, either in corporate or government memory banks, or in personal computing systems, that is infinitely accessible from anywhere, without the need to store information on a physical storage unit.

lol i havent seen vcr's in a long time do they even make those still?

I doubt there will even be DVD players. I think everything will be downloaded, or at least, most things that can be put into digital format.

Only collectors will still own them.
There are DVD/VCR units now.

I dont think so , I guess even tools to convert VCR to CD and DVD wont be used by 20 yrs .

No. Expect the equivalent of "memory sticks" to take over.

Only as collector's items.
Would a blank S-VHS tape be able to be used in an older VCR for recording and/or playback?

Does the video type matter quality wise if 2 different video types have same bitrate?

I have a Samsung VCR which plays tapes properly except for 1 tape. It shows up with a blue screen

While recording, the electricity went out. Now, the vcr records snow. TV is fine. Checked connections, all is fine? What else do I check?

Does anybody still have a VCR and use it? Is it still working?

You're reading Will VCR's exist in the next 20 years? Will it still be combined with the DVD together by then?
