Yes, the main reason was that Sony tried to keep Beta to itself - and bomed out badly. But the format is still alive and well as Betacam Digital (or was the last time I looked). The tape runs eight times faster than the old domestic variety.

As I don't have a working fuel gauge I'm safe in my 5 kms to the litre calculation.
