Adios Betamax!

Just read that Sony will stop selling Betamax tapes next year.

I couldnt believe they were still on sale. Who on earth buys them still??

One of the big UK museums, forgot which one, had to decide on an archiving format back then, and Betamax tapes came out on top. So now they are stuck with it.

Ah betamax, not a word you hear nowadays. The Beast and the Priest is still my favorite Mighty Boosh episode
