[net.audio] Beta Hi-Fi Query

chan@hpfcma.UUCP (chan) (01/29/85)

I'm thinking about buying a Beta Hi-Fi unit, and would like
to pose a few questions to anyone who is familiar with them:

o     Does anyone have plans to release albums in this format?

o     How long-lived are the tapes?

o     What are the pros (and cons if any) compared to VHS Hi-Fi (such as it is)?

o     How reliable is the hardware? Are the bugs worked out yet?

Please mail me your replies, or post to the net.
