It is time for everyone to pay their respects to the VHS. For years the majority of us have been purchasing nothing but DVD’s and we already thought that the VHS had died out. But there were those few who still clung to them and would use them.
But today the death certificate for the VHS was signed by the Distribution Video Audio. They were the last major supplier and they have shipped out their last bit of stock. This supplier made $20 million a year selling these cheap VHS tapes. But now most everyone has caught up with the time and doesn’t try to buy them anymore.
Any of us would grab at the chance to get our hands on an expensive car. But what is a Ferrari or Lamborghini when you can get yourself your very own space shuttle? NASA stated this week that they are contemplating a few ideas on how and where they can put their retired space shuttles. They have already called a few schools, science museums, and “other appropriate organizations” that they will no longer be using.
NASA has estimated each space shuttle to be worth about $42 million for each shuttle. This includes delivery – but they admit that it could cost more than this. People who need it delivered farther will have to fork over more money.
