The only way to watch a movie was to wait for the store to order one in and hope to get there first to rent it.

The VCR was a heavy brute...I'll bet it weighed 20 lbs. (1980)
I had one. It cost a thou$snd. I had to finance it. I set it to record Dick Cavet who I think was on a 4pm PST. IDT I rented movies. Maybe.
