I used to be a VHS recording addict as a kid. I can't begin to count the amount of music videos, old movies and cartoons I still have on tape.
A lot of my old tapes aren't just focused on one thing, at least half of them are 4-6 hour-long random grab bags.

I still have a good amount of the whole series of "City Guys" on tape. If only that show was released on DVD.

I know I have 2 complete years of WWF ppv's plus lots more. I just got a vhs to dvd converter and I need to get started. I never really recorded anything else though. I had a friend who had 2 VCR's and made some copies of rented movies and gave them to me. That is how I had Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, and a Goosebumps episode

I totally agree on the still awesomeness of the VHS. Infact, I just recorded something yesterday. A part of a movie I want to keep.
As for finding old tapes, I just found a box of old retail tapes, some I remembered owning, some I didn't. (I own Road Wild '99 apparently)

I am actually thinking about buying some tapes right now of a couple of movies that never made it to DVD. Video tapes are precious and this is why. There is a lot of stuff that will never make it to DVD or blu-ray. It annoys me how so many people these days hold the belief that tapes are useless and just need to be thrown away. I still have my collection and hopefully one day will go through it like you are OP and write it all down.

Taking a cue from the OP I got out a random tape from one of my hundreds of unlabeled VHS tapes and it's the final episode of Monday Nitro! I haven't seen it since it first aired.

reminder, these are ALL recorded off the tv ..... and one or two that were copied from rental tapes ..... aren't i naughty I'm with ya. I credit Blockbuster Video with building my WWE and WCW tape collection in the '90s. ;D Right now, I'm in the process of converting those tapes to DVDs. A good chunk of my collection comes from specials I taped off TV, like Clash of the Champions and Sunday Night Slams. When I taped all this stuff back then, sometimes I would pause the tape when the shows went to commercial, then resume recording when they came back. If I got the timing right I could get a pretty seamless edit--it was almost like I discovered an early form of DVR. The funny thing is that now I'm kicking myself for taking those ad breaks out. Of course I had no idea that TV advertising would take such a nosedive in quality when the '90s ended but, whatever. (Did Selsun Blue buy a stake in WCW? Because their ads are on seemingly EVERY tape I've gone through so far! Same with Soloflex.)

Sometimes I pop in to the local Goodwill and pick up an old VHS tape for like 50 cents then donate it back to them a day or two later. Obviously im not viewing new material but its almost a perfect money saver in some situations.
