    I turned 4 years old in July of 85, and one of my earliest TV memories from then that was not a cartoon was watching Miami Vice with my dad while I played with my hotwheels/Matchbox cars sitting in front of the TV, and thinking how cool Sunny, and Crockett were riding around in their Daytona. 👍👍

      It is definitely more for the aging Woodstock boomers and generation jones boomers not generation X because that were kind of young.
      Woodstock boomers were born in between 1946 to 1954 and Generation jones boomers 1955 to 1964

    I discovered a Radio Shack about 40 minutes from my house and drove out, hoping to make a video for RUclips and actually start doing something with my channel! Sadly, I got there and found out it was open by appointment only. Sigh. It was a real, branded Radio Shack, though!

    It's a funny coincidence (to me, anyway) that my sister was born in '85 and an episode with commercials from that year comes out the day after her birthday.
    One of the things I like to do with ads from the '80s is looking for products or brands that don't exist anymore. Don't ask me why that's interesting to me, it just is.

    I’m surprised Betamax subdued to vhs considering things were getting smaller

    • @CommodoreFan64
      @CommodoreFan64 3 года назад +1

      There where a number of factors that led to VHS winning the consumer market:
      1. VHS was a more open standard
      2. the open standard led to more manufactures of VCR/VHS Players, Tapes, and VHS Camcorders
      3. All that led to lower prices than Beta/BetaMax
      4. VHS had a longer run/record time from the start compared to Sony BetaMax
      5. VHS players as a whole produced less motor noise, which many consumers prefered
      6. Hollywood latched onto VHS more that Betamax again because of initial longer run time of the tapes
      7. The adult film industry also latched on to VHS because of run times, and lower cost to produce VHS
      8. Hollywood was able to eventually include Macrovision copy protection on VHS(that why if you made a copy of some commercial tapes they would fade in, and out without a special box to compensate for the signal difference)
      9. rental stores preferred VHS again due to the lower cost, and wider selection of titles vs. Betamax
      10. Most consumers could not tell a difference in quality running VCR/VHS players over 75 Ohm RF, or RCA Composite cables, and/or did not care vs. the slightly higher resolution of Sony Betamax.
      11. VHS-C(compact) helped keep VHS going for home consumers with smaller camcorders, and being able to playback their tapes with a simple adapter in almost any VCR/VHS player.
      Having said that the professional markets like TV studios for news, smaller movie productions, and even big budget TV productions latched onto SONY BETA in various forms for decades well in the late 00's because of the higher quality equipment, and tapes, which from my understanding was also more reliable.

      @CommodoreFan64 3 года назад

      @@thevanillagorilla71I'm afraid you misremembering, as VHS, and BETA are not compatible, do to record speeds, the drum sizes, the slight differences of the chemical composition of the tapes themselves, and the angle the heads recorded onto the tape, so there was no adapter to play Betamax on a VCR/VHS player. The only adapter a VCR/VHS player can take is either a manual, or battery powered automatic VHS-C to VHS adapter.
      Having said that you can take the actual tape out of a BETAMax tape shell, and put it into professional VHS tape cleaning machine inside of a VHS Shell to help clean off mold, and then put it back into a BETAmax shell, but that's it!
