Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what actually is VHS?
Back in the time when the world was new and the oceans still boiled and the Angels battled in heaven, there existed a movie format called VHS; it consisted of a big black rectangle with two spindles inside and filled with a magnetic tape-like material. Proto-humans had to watch their films on these through a device called a VCR.

I think my parents still have BetaMax, not sure what its called anymore but it was before, VHS. (their smaller and a gray colour)
You are thinking of one of two formats:RCA Videodiscs or Laserdiscs
Laserdiscs are still on the market, and are essentially LP-sized CDs.
"CED discs" (sold as "RCA Selectavision"😉 were darker colored discs stored inside a non-removable plastic "caddy".

I got the first special edition set of Star Wars on VHS, Blade, and Star Trek: First Contact.My dad still has a whole shelf full of them... but he's steadily collecting DVDS to replace them.
Okay, ignore my post from 2006 😆 , I don't have them anymore but the ones that I do are:
The One Armed Boxer.
Return to the 36th Chamber.
Batman TAS: Cat and Claw part 1 & 2.
Batman TAS: On Leather Wings & Heart of Ice.
Bravestarr:The Legend (movie).
Unfortunately the BTAS episodes tend to whistle when played so it's mainly for sentimental reasons that I still keep them. The rest work fine thankfully.
