betamax got a bad rap. it was the superior format. what most do not know is that betamax was the professional standard for video until just a few years ago when hd technology was completely adopted. even now betacams still sell for over $10,000 and it had a digital version that almost reached hd resolutions.
while porn has always been the best indicator in the past i think the technology has gone beyond what porn needs or wants.
cellphones have thrived without having porn content or at least widespread porn usage. where apple is failing is they are throwing out sexy content along with porn.

betamax was better but vhs won the hi street battle @drex even though HD has been introduced,do ya still use VHS or tape for editing/filming the reason i ask bud is because most people i know were under the impression that VHS was history cos of DIGITAL but i was thinking about how many companies still use VID,like shops and iv even seen CCTV rooms that log playback on vids is tape still good or has digital killed it

betamax was used for a while in the recording industry not for video but audio for mix down from multitrack tapes . then came the digital age and the britney spears ... ohh god please make it stop .. sob sob

Well my confession was s2000 and when I then went to the video rental shop to find only Vhs and cuter sized Betamax films I went back and changed the Grundig machine for a Sanyo. Dohhh then that got phased out, more recently we had HD-dvd and guess what Blu ray has it, mmmm whatever next? Now hows my BP shares doin!

wg i know there are porn sites for your phone. my point is they are not as big as they are with other formats.
brill.....i still use professional VTRs for vhs,8mm-hi8 and sony 3/4 u-matic. there is just so much media out there that hasn't been digitized yet. also there are many broadcast companies that require you to submit commercials in 3/4 form. another 5 years and it will all be ancient technology.

solid state formats are coming. there are already many new solid state professional cameras. blu-ray is going to be old school faster than any other format before. i liked the linear play of tape. you actually had to work to find your favorite porn scene.
