->  TW> Look at the Piched Battle between the Beta and VHS tape
standard/ We the
->  TW> Customer came away Far better off.
-> In what sense? VHS is lower quality recording than Beta.

 I was thinking about the Price of the product. You wouls never have
seen the prices drop if we were still paying Royalities to SONY for the
use of the Beta Technology.                                           
 Yes we cdid loose a little i nPicture quality but in Reality Over the
Air Video quality is Lousy no matter how you look at it. And except for
the nit-Pickers you could hardly tell the difference on the typical TV
set.                                                   
 NHow that we are entering the era of Real hi-Definition the picture is
differenmt but so is the Recording capabilities with DVD's and Hard
Drive systems..
