Product Description


Could You Spare Any Change?

 

There was a time when life was simple. When acid wash jeans were all the rage, when mullets represented the height of fashion and when the Rolling Stones were still belting out their timeless classics.

It was during this golden age that we all hailed the humble video cassette as the keeper and provider of all our visual entertainment needs. With it we could travel to the far reaches of the galaxy, explore the jungles of the Amazon or even watch as a man in blue tights and red underwear saved us from impending doom.

"Fast forward" to the 21st century and actually not that much has changed. We still need saving from impending doom and the Rolling Stones are still belting out their timeless classics. The only real difference is the way in which movies and television programs have made themselves available for our personal viewing.

Go to any "video" store and the point becomes abundantly clear. Rows and rows of DVDs line the shelves while in a dark and isolated corner of the store the remnant of the once mighty video collection gathers dust.

But the reality is that we are still bound to the past by our need to retain the archaic video entertainment system. And why? All because modern DVD players lack the simple ability to record programs or movies directly from the television. A function that was available to us on the video cassette player for more than 30 years.

But those days of relying on outdated technology are now soon to be a thing of the past. For today we are offering up for sale the Thompson Scenium DVD recorder.

This award winning European model now gives you the means to digitally record absolutely anything you wish directly from the television. And with features such as a front USB input, front S-Video input, one touch recording and auto naming with the NavClick Program Guide all the power of compiling and editing our entertainment collection has once again been placed solely in your hands. For all intents and purposes the future has finally caught up with the past.

So while you are messing around with that ungodly tracking button give a thought to the Thompson DVD recorder and try to imagine the limitless possibilities its features promise to deliver. Then decide whether you want to stay entrenched in the Dark Ages or, alternatively, embrace what modern technology has to offer and infringe on the legal rights of entertainers the way God truly intended. And once you finally do reach the only logical conclusion there is and are ready to invest in a system that sells at half the price seen in any retail store, you'll know where to find us. But, just keep in mind that the longer you wait, the longer you hesitate, the greater the chance that your bargain will go the way of the video cassette player and disappear forever.
