robert,
It's not a stupid question, there aren't any left.

I know of no such cable ready radio, you'd most likely do better and cheaper
by purchasing the smallest cheapest cable ready TV you can find with an earphone
jack and hooking it to a regular tape recorder.

You don't need a TV to listen to the sound from a VCR, just a stereo or audio
receiver with "line input" connections which you hook to the audio outputs
from the VCR.  this could be a boom box with line input connections.

come to think of it, you can probably hear the cable stuff on the VCR directly
anyhow using its audio outputs into the aforementioned stereo receiver.

All that stuff is so relatively cheap and available that I don't see the
real market for cassette recordings of discribed movies.  They'd have to be
 in "talking book" standard tape to avoid copyright problems anyhow and that'd
 up the production costs also.

Remember folks if you can solve a problem with standard consumer
electronics it is bound to be very much cheaper than anything
custom made for the "adapted" market.

Hope that helps
