Is this page really necessary? There is already a page for the VCR. Perhaps the pages should be combined.
- On Japanese TV, they typically call any prerecorded video a VTR, so this page does seem relevant.

- VTR is a video recorder which uses tape. VCR is a VTR which happens to use cassettes. The reel-to-reel VTR was invented and in common use for 15-20 years before VCRs were invented/common. To put the VTR information in VCR is probably misleading. Anyway, all VCRs are VTRs, but not vice versa. So technically, Japanese TV is correct (assuming they still use tape!)
