Rocky, is it ignorance or intentional deception? The Betacam format to which you mistakenly refer as Beta has no relation to the consumer tape format other than the manufacturer. Betacam (commonly shortened to Beta since there is no other living Beta to cause confusion) is indeed a broadcast format, however it owes it's quality to expensive design. Broadcast Beta machines cost in excess of $35,000, with the latest Digital Betacam editing decks over $50,000 a pop. Maybe you need one of those in your living room so you don't have to watch "crappy VHS", but the rest of the world prefers to go with the Standard. Your credibility continues to diminish each time you discuss things that you don't know about.
