Not even that is acceptable. They should be owned on laserdisc.
Anyway, I call shenanigans on the OP.

Or the DVD's ripped from the Laserdiscs. I have a very nice set of those.

Wow, you guys are going crazy... people still do buy VHS. I myself from time to time buy VHS's because its cheeper to buy a used version of a movie than rent it at blockbuster 50% of the time.
