In the analog world that crap does not happen and it will be there for your lifetime and some.

I'd still be using 110 film if anyone around here sold or developed it anymore.

There's a Garfield and Friends episode called "The Record Breaker" in which almost no one knows what a record player is. Such a parody of the digital audio world seems surreal these days.

Yes .Its hard to find people who still develop this format.I think B and H Camera in NYC still does it . I still have my 110 camera here and its right here in front of me on this desk.Nothing high class since its a Ansco Tele Motor 900 from Kmart.It work great at concerts before I got my 35mm setup.

My parents bought me a Sony VCR/DVD for Christmas 2007. It does not record to DVD though, only to VHS. But it doesn't have it's own tuner. I forget how I recorded on it, must have fed it from cable box. In fact it's been so long that I used it I can't remember IF I ever recorded with it. lol
