Rip my VHS tapes, or download? (sh.itjust.works)

So I own over 500 vhs tapes. And dvds, but those are easy to rip. I am trying to archive all my tapes before they go bad. However, that takes a lot of time. Should I just try to find all the movies I can for tapes I own?

I've been out of the game for a few years now. How vast are the resources for 90s movies and such ?

There might be versions of movies on those tapes that aren't available anywhere else. From an archiving POV ripping them could be invaluable to the community (ie the world). There are still lost Dr Who episodes that are found this way.
