DVD Video Recorders and Digital video recorders such as TiVo have recently begun to drop in price in developed countries, which some consider to be the writing on the wall for VCRs in those markets.
However, the introduction of recordable DVDs with sufficient recording capacity on to the regular market with their advantage of random access could spell the doom of the VCR once the price comes down significantly.

This album is somewhat lighter in tone than its predecessor and probably the most melodically polished of all three, a few songs like the acoustic-guitar driven ballad "Father" being almost straight-ahead pop tunes (very good ones, though).
This music is over-produced (I mean that in a good way), well recorded and slick, with English lyrics, but consists mostly of rock anthems that make you want to wave your fist in the air along with the music, but doesn't offer much to fill the space between your ears.
