VCRs...
Actually, the home consumer market model of Sony's Betamax VCR was released in 1976 with JVC's VHS model released the following year in 1977.
In fact, we had one of those big desktop models and for several years afterward, I had the VCR home tape of the original airing of Saga of a Star World!!!!!
A few years later, in a fit of desperation, my mom took my VHS and taped a soap opera over it!!!!! Boy what would I give to have that tape back...
Talk about being mad!!!!!
