You buy RCA tapes too? Wal-Mart sells 10 pack of RCA tapes for 8.98 is why I'm asking. I have about 25 to 30 tapes of FOL. I re-record them from USA to N@N to TV Land and now on Hallmark.

My parents say I need an extra room just to store all my tapes too. I have no idea how many tapes I have. I bet I could wallpaper the whole house with as many tapes as I have.

My parents get a kick out of me making copies of some shows too. I tape Batman now and I'm doing copies now. They always ask me, why I keep taping the same thing over and over again? I know it probably sounds crazy to some, but I want to at least have 3 copies of each episode. You never know when tvland might drop Batman and never show it again. If I taped all the episodes once and something happened to that tape, then I'd be screwed. I wouldn't have a chance to record it ever again. My parents still don't understand it.

I just like retaping shows from different networks to see which scenes were cut out and put in. But besides FOL tapes I'd say I have over 200 tapes filled with different shows like Buffy, Batman (scifi & TV Land) , Christmas shows (I have 12 tapes already) , Small Wonder, Bewitched, Charmed, Alice, cartoons, and other shows. I love recording! Who ever invented VCRs had a WONDERFUL mind!
