From WTOP news: http://wtop.com/money/2016/01/happy-birthday-video-betamax-is-still-a-thing/ [wtop.com]
After 40 years, Sony will end production of BetaMax tapes in March.
"Sony introduced the consumer-friendly Betamax recorder, a suitcase-sized machine that recorded up to two hours of video on a cassette tape off of broadcast or cable signals, in 1975. And that ushered in era of the VCR. (That stands for video cassette recorder, millennials.)"
Don't let your mind wander -- it's too little to be let out alone.
