Not really, but funnily enough the people who did buy players bought tons of discs for it. Way more than expected.
This video goes into autistic detail about it:
well digital betacam tapes was still used in TV production until somewhat recently, long after VHS had been disappeared so you could argue that beta won in the end like a slow and steady turtle.
My first car (1992) still had ONLY a tape player. I had to go to Best Buy to get a tape-link-to-headphone-jack to play my CDs from my CD-player.
Had an "automatic" seat-belt, too, that slid over your shoulder any time you opened the door.
It would have unironically been better if they kept tape decks so we could have plugged phones into such systems, cd players were garbage and had no way to adapt until cigarette bluetooth systems came along.
No joke; the CD players in early cars couldn't read medium to low quality cds in the first place, and if you were using a cassette-tape-converter on your portable CD player, which sat in the passenger seat, it skipped like mad or had bad export.
Heck, I still had that car when MP3 players were just getting sold for under 100$ and I could actually listen to more than one album at a time. Even more than regular, non-skipping large playlists, they were LIGHT and I could go running without holding onto my CD player, now!
This thread is filled with people who think they are funnier than they are. Before VHS there was a tape format named BETAMAX but VHS won out so everyone had to switch. I’m smart and you’re not.

what explains the moronic aesthetic of fake wood design? who the frick associates technology with a wood? was it some amish designer?
it was the style of the time
used to tie an onion on my belt.
The OG vidya consoles also had wood.
Probably related to the first home radios and TVs being treated as furniture
Ah yes, the video disc system that actually degraded everytime you played it.

I liked my car a lot.
I love my Sansa Clip. Still use it occasionally, though the battery doesn't hold a charge nearly as well as it did when I first got it.
I had a truck with a tape deck and it was fun going to a thrift store and stacking up on $.50 tapes to jam out to.
Why didn't any of this shit take off?
>zoomers have no clue about the VHS adapter cassettes that could fit the mini cassettes inside
Only way to use camcorders.
Amazing that coomers had such an impact on an entire industry.

1975 comes before 1976 my chromosome challenged friend.
Neither of those existed. Can't be proven by physical evidence.
>before VHS
They came out at roughly the same time moron.
>roughly
Be more precise.

By less than a year. Neither were established favorites by the time the 1980s arrived.
