If you have a monstrous collection of VHS tapes that you would like to digitize before disposal, the Ion VCR 2 PC is one way of accomplishing the task. Basically, the VCR2PC is a video player with a USB out. You plug it into your computer and hit play and wait, wait and then wait some more for the video to finish playing. Isn’t it so much easier with digital media? While I phased out VHS from my collection long ago, there are plenty of people that can’t stand the thought of parting with all of their monstrous collections of tapes, something like this ought to help them make the job easier (though if you have 20,000 of them you might want to call some minions into action).

Price: $250
