Does anybody think that now is the perfect time for Sony to re-launch Betamax? DVD's are in, and people just have to give up on their VHS, but if they put a thing in the new Betamax players that allow VHS to play, as well as obviously releasing some new Betamax tapes, it could work well!
Your thoughts? |

^ But then kids like to pull out the film and tangle it up and stuff.
VHS tapes are too bulky and they're ugly. The video quality isn't too good on it either. DVDs are more convenient. A lot of people have DVD burners and players on their computers. It'd be easier just to stick to DVDs, IMO. |
