Yep, well that's why no-one's ever had a hit record featuring a wonky VHS tape.
Mellotrons, however...We've all seen and heard multiple copies/generations of VHS analog tapes. They are dirty, visually and audibly impairing. One generation for me is one too many. One generation off, ok, two generations off, maybe. 3? Not for me. Just sayin.
