Kept them. My first grandchild will be arriving next month. Bought a new VHS/DVD/CD Burner player 3 years ago so if my other VHS player dies, I'll still have a way to play them and all my home videos on VHS.
Funny thing is, never thought I would own any movies (on VHS or DVD), but some how we accumulated a lot.
I'm in better shape than my wife's step-sister and her husband. They have 1,500 movies on BETA. They collected them while their kids were young and he was stationed in Japan in the Air Force. Apparently they were dirt cheap over there.
