Wheather you get VHS or BETA or some other video tape media,whats your fav??

Mine is CBS/FOX (Well one of them anyway) -- I love the design they use on the tapes,etc..... I love the format on the back usually with 2 pictures from the movie and an excellent description about it...............

How about you??

I akways liked Paramount. CBS FOX is good too. Good examples of those are Porkys and Wargames.

I preferred Paramount's packaging. They often used higher quality tape too...TDK Avilyn for instance.

In pre-recorded tapes, I liked the Warner Brothers (and Disney) flip-open cases the best. The pre-recorded tapes that were basically in sleeves where the movie could fall out the bottom always seemed bad to me.

Blank video tapes? Sony, with Maxell, Fuji, or TDK right behind.

Never could stand those disney boxes. Always too big to fit in storage units with other vhs and almost any time i ever found any, they were either yellowed, cracked, or crushed by weight. Crappy design if you ask me. Especially considering most vhs was in regular boxes.
