The issues were simpler: Betamax earlier tapes where shorter. For a full movie you need 90" tapes (the average length for movies at the age, in late 2000 120" became the norm), while Betamax had 1hour length; and the tape rental preference created a circle where you needed a VHS for rent them-
However if I should pick a vintage analog solution today for videos on tapes, surely is Betamax.

Something slight different.
A good but unfortunate format of the 80s was the Sony Betamax, if you have heard it, and it was better than VHS in terms of quality.
While a version of the story why the widespread of the VHS was massive that became a symbol of 80 was because the tapes were used for p***, the problems in truth were others.Anyway here a comparison.

Les événements du 7 juin.
En 1975, Sony lance le #Betamax, un magnétoscope réputé de meilleure qualité que la #VHS qui sera lancée quelques années plus tard. En 1965, Sony avait déjà présenté un magnétoscope domestique, pour un prix d’environ 1000$.

Sony lanza Betamax en 1975
El hecho más significativo sobre la historia de Sony es el lanzamiento de Betamax, el primer formato de videograbadora en 1975. Este evento marcó un momento crucial en el desarrollo de la tecnología de video doméstico y consolidó la posición de Sony como líder en la industria de la electrónica de consumo. Para entender…

In climbing, people use the noun "beta" to refer to the correct solution to a bouldering problem. It's polite to ask "do you want the beta?" before offering someone advice. I never knew where that came from till now, assuming it was related to the Greek alphabet for some reason.
Lynn Hill is a legendary climber who set lots of records and won loads of comps back in the day. She explains that use of the term "beta" comes from the format beta max - to get the beta is to watch the tape of the climb to know how to do it.

Пиратство в эпоху VHS: как Universal судилась с Sony и почему последствия этого спора мы ощущаем и в наши дни
Когда вы загружаете видео на YouTube или нажимаете кнопку «запись» во время стрима, за этим стоит историческое решение Верховного суда США, принятое в 1984 году с минимальным перевесом голосов. Дело Sony Corp. of America vs Universal City Studios, известное как «дело Betamax», впервые поставило вопрос, отвечает ли производитель техники за то, как именно её используют покупатели. Многие современные платформы существуют в привычном нам виде благодаря этому.

Well, a VHS tape I wanted to buy and show for Pride Month is actually pretty rare and goes for almost $50 online... :neocat_pensive:
But it's only $7 on Betamax! So clearly if I buy it and a Betamax player cheaper, it'd be totally worth doing purchasing it, right?!? :neocat_googly_blep:

@lauren @claralistensprechen5th I'm certain someone Out There has a functioning #betamax player. They've done nothing wrong, or more likely nothing THAT wrong, to deserve this. Why not go digital with #laserdisc ?
(Posting in the hope of extracting some Laserdisc anecdote) -
Gibt's noch Bedarf für #betamax Kassetten? Kann hier alte bespielt verschenken. Ca 20 bespielt mit Theaterstücken aus den 90ern. Aus Fernsehen aufgezeichnet. Wenn ja, gerne melden.

A fresh composition of my Amiga A4000. You can clearly see that I'm not using this computer in fact the last time it has been fired up, is in the last century.
The oxidation on the outside of the FDD, clearly indicates electrolytic capacitors inside which should not be electrified.I will need to recap this whole motherboard before I even attempt to turn it on. I'm not planning to do so though
I have an A4000T which just needs another RTG card. The Picasso 96 that I ordered for the last time broke down after 5 years.
If I really want to I can even repair the Picasso 96. The video IC is just a Cyrus logic IIRC
For me AGA is way too slow to work on such a massive machine
Which is the reason for both the A4000T which is in storage and the A4000 to be idle
Below the Amiga you can see a part of a betamax video recorder.

🤦♂️ In a groundbreaking revelation, news from 40 years ago is now available today! Because nothing says cutting-edge journalism like reading about #disco and #Betamax 📼. Apparently, #nostalgia is the new "breaking news" 🚀.

Schon witzig dass die Leute mittlerweile so die Schnauze voll haben von alle dem was #hollywood und vor allem #disney meint denen vorsetzen zu müssen das es eine #despecialized #version von #starwars gibt in der alle die unnötigen nach träglich hinzugebastelten #cgi effekte wieder entfernt wurden ;-)
Ich mag diese Version mehr als alle die es aktuell bei den #streaming Plattformen gibt, da ist die Version die mich als 14 jährigen damals auf #betamax #video verzaubert hat.

Revisit - RCA VPT292 VHS VCR (1988), with new belts
-
At one of my local thrift stores. On one hand, it would be helpful to spare my actual VCRs a little mechanical wear and tear. On the other hand, $7 seems a bit high. And on yet a third hand, I should hold out for one of the novelty sports car ones.

I'm still low-key mad about #Betamax losing. 😆

#TheThing and #EscapeFromNewYork (on #betamax IIRC) were my intro to #KurtRussell
Imagine my surprise when I found out years later Snake had been a Disney child star!

Found in my old room at the parental mansion: #DeadTech
Betamax, no less! Looks like it was used to record #DoctorWho back in the Long Ago...

Unbedingt die Kommentare lesen ;) Schon damals war die Pornoindustrie entscheidend.

Mit #Meshtastic #meshcore und #Reticulum verhält es sich wie damals mit #VHS #betamax und #video2000 . Letzteres wurde uns von Industrie Konsortien vorgegeben. Ich finde es traurig, dass bei freien Projekten Leute nicht mehr zusammen finden und an einem Strang ziehen können. Hier wo ich wohne, gibt es von diesen drei Mesh Messengern keinerlei Nutzung. Und die Leute hier sind überfordert, dass es von allem zu viele Varianten gibt. Betrifft auch das Fediverse und Linux. Daher wird es nicht kommen.

📰😅 Oh, the #Verge is back to unearth the "lost secrets" of Palm webOS—because clearly nothing says cutting-edge #journalism like rehashing 2014 tech. 🌴🔍 Next up: an exclusive deep dive into the forgotten art of #Betamax tapes. 🎥📼

@gpilz @Daojoan Just like #VHS won even though #Betamax and #Video2000 were both better.

@lars_amenda Was'n da nun wieder zu hinterfragen? Das, unter anderem war die #TDK Werbung zu ihrem zweifelsohne sehr guten Bandmaterial(🤩🤩).
