Component on VHS tape machines has never appeared as a consideration but component output is (justifiably) the flavour of the month with quality DVD and I guess it is with the hard drive digital machines also(???).

s-video was the quality choice with laserdisc with no component output ever appearing that I'm aware of but we seem to be moving on. Which direction we will end up with for home recording is the 64 million dollar question at the moment. And that is assuming the moguls do not prevent copying full stop. In the meantime I'll stick with s-video taping to time shift.
