The DVD player only machines as against the DVD recorders are very
affordable now.  I'm pretty sure I saw one recently for 40 quid in Safeways
or someplace like that.  I'm thinking of getting one soon.

BTW, I bought a new 4-head VCR quite recently for about £79 and it plays all
my old recordings - sound and vision - better than ever before.   I looked
recently at a 24 year old recorded clip (from a Whistle Test replay I think)
of Planxty playing "West Coast Of Clare" - one of Andy's early songs.

Money well spent IMO.
