Binging movies wasn’t much of a thing back then; I can’t remember a single time when I wanted to immediately put another video in after just finishing one. Plus it took like 5 minutes to rewind one - I’d usually run to the bathroom and grab a snack and it’d be done by the time I got back. It wasn’t any longer than a commercial break, and we were all used to that back then. I remember I once mowed the lawn 5 minutes at a time during commercial breaks because I didn’t want to miss the show I was watching, haha!
Yes. So much so they made completely seperate machines to rewind vhs tapes so your one vcr could continue to do other things at the same time.
