Please log in for more thread options Each one uses a molding process and the a recording. VHS needs component assembly, DVD does not. VHS has a higher part weight, higher volume per unit, so it costs more to store/ship/move inventory. VHS is an analog format, and most likely limited in the speed of duplication, DVD, from what I can see, would be easier to establish unmanned (direct labor free) automated duplication processes. I would have to think mfg costs are lower for DVD, all around. | ||||||||||||||||
