I have no idea why companies stopped supporting Betamax. It was obviously a superior product, so Sony, Toshiba, et al were evil a-holes, depriving me of my better looking movies. When our last Beta VCR died, I tried to find something to play my collection of Beta tapes, but everyone had moved on like a bunch of idiots.
Also, I have 50 Atari cartridges out in the garage. I think Sony and Nintendo are evil corporations for not including an Atari slot on the PS3 and Wii. You can tell me that they are old games with horrible graphics, but I love them. I don't think we should have abandoned them and I think there is something horribly, horribly wrong with any company that doesn't support the Atari cartridge in their gaming system.
