Most DVD VCR combo units will do the job just fine as long as you don't have Macrovision / CSS encryption on the DVD. You can also connect a good quality VCR (definitely get one with an S.video connection) to any standard DVD player or even a computer with an analog video output and record away... Macrovision can still play a role in those situations too.

I got two requests for VHS tapes last year, none so far this year. I do get a lot of clients who I've done work for over the past few years wanting me to update their productions and deliver DVD versions to replace VHS tapes. Last year, I started charging an extra fee for delivering VHS... Mostly because I don't want to do it anymore.
