This gave birth to the fires commercial video format known as the 2inch quadroplex. As technology improved so did the video format. There were 8mm with their reel to reel, then the cartridge format and that was replaced in the 70's with laser disc. The 90's brought with it VHS and BETA videocassette recorders. They lasted a little while only to be replaced with digital video recording know to most as just DVD. The recorders and players all run on a purely digital format. The digital picture has infinite possibilities as they are being transmitted without wires or cables. The age of wireless video has brought with it this new innovation.
