  1. About the part where you ask why would someone want to own this back in the day? well i was not around at the time but i heard almost every teenager at the time tried to start their own rock band. usually very unsuccessful. but if they where more wealthy supper middle class they could get this for high quality future proof recordings.

  2. They should have made a vcr with a simple computer or game console build that could load games and other things from the vhs tape that also contained a movie. you could also load the game first and then use the movie as a background. or maybe it could add multiple subtitles that you could choose in a menu or put a cursor on the screen and if you click in certain things in the movie it could give you some trivia. it probably would have sucked and flopped but a cool gimmick for some people back in the day before dvd. there where game consoles that used vhs but these where not proper game consoles. they where just pre programmed light gun games or racing games that used the movie as a background but didn't load in any data.
