Input porträtiert unter dem Titel “Meet the amateur archivists streaming old VHS tapes online” Fans, die alte auf VHS aufgezeichnete Fernsehsendungen wieder zugänglich machen (via Researchbuzz: Firehose):
“The tape collectors have different approaches. [Pete] Dillon-Trenchard provides a wry, Beavis and Butthead-style director’s commentary to whatever’s going on in the tapes in front of him. He typically focuses on advertisements rather than movies and TV shows — a decision taken to avoid any copyright issues, he says. [Jackson] Bedenbaugh doesn’t do much beyond clipping key moments from the tapes he finds, the equivalent of panning for gold within his analog tape mines. Meanwhile, FORGOTTEN_VCR — a Twitch streamer who asked to remain anonymous because he wants his work to speak for him — does something slightly different.”
