if Sony had been around earlier - format wars


for those who gave you beta, sacd and now blue ray
always intent on a format war

if sony had been around earlier

turntables would spin both clockwise and counterclockwise

8 track tapes would have competed with 10 tracks
or in a spinal tap world 11 tracks

edison would have given up

rome would have fell to both barbarians and format wars as the cariot would have been redesigned to fit in wider wheel ruts

Fact is . . . Beta, SACD, and Blue Ray were (are) all the superior technology, compared to the competitors. VHS, DVD-A, and HD-DVD are all inferior in various ways. I think Sony fails in its marketing, much as Apple, with a superior operating system to Microsoft, failed to establish itself as the dominant system due to a lack of insight into successful marketing.
