@ John: ...why are you lecturing Darrol about Betamax when he didn't even mention... oh wait, i see. you're one of those assholes who replies to the first comment regardless of if you're actually replying to the comment, you just want your comment to show up near the top. how selfish.
anyway, Betamax WAS used professionally (I actually had 4 beta editing decks) but isn't much at all anymore. Everyone has long ago moved to Digital, if not HD. (Partially because the analog cutoff...)
so how about you "educate yourself" with information that's not half-a-decade old. (for the record, betacam and betamax are not the same thing, and calling hdcam the same thing as betamax is like saying that records and hard drives are the same thing because they both have "spinning platters")
like Michael Scott said " Wikipedia is where anyone in the world can write whatever they want.... so you know you're always getting the best information!"
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”
