20 years ago it would have been DVDs. But even before that, we didn't call them "VHS"es. We called them tapes, or video tapes if we wanted to distinguish from audio tapes.
That might be a regional thing. 20 years ago I was calling them vhs' living in Nevada but idk about others.
Oh, interesting! I stand corrected.
I distinctly remember tapes, video tapes, video cassette, and VHS all being things we would say it for
