What were they thinking with a name like that? Maybe not the meme it is today, but "beta" had the same defintion back then as it does now. Why not got whith Alphamax? Apextape?

A thread dedicated to coming up with a better name for this product, so that in an alternate timeline it may be successful.

V H S
Betamax
Probably would have done marginally better with Alphamax.

Its like Idris Elba vs Chiwetel Ejiolfor

>but "beta" had the same defintion back then as it does now
beta has always referred to siamese fighting fish until recently

how to spot an underage retard: the post.

It was supposed to be "Betta Max" because it was the better (to the maximum), but they fucked it up

Someone make a virgin betamax chad VHS meme

It's called that because it uses beta radiation to produce the image.

i have a stupidly large vhs collection, but no betamax unfortunately

beta = advanced version of alpha prototype
something at alpha stage = early prototype
beta = more advanced, developed version, still not final

That's real cool and all, but your still stuck with your product being called "betamax".
