my current interest is this oddball media format from the early 1980s that stored video using technology similar to that of vinyl records.
it only lasted for 5-ish years before getting basically pushed out of the market by vhs and (possibly) laserdisc.

i have no intention of ever getting one - my dvd player and kodi setup works perfectly fine lol

    because unless you're planning to watch a movie once a decade these things would wear down and you would easily notice the effects

    you also had to buy a big clunky machine just for it

    and compared to any other format the quality would be worse
