So maybe I'm behind the times but this is the first I've seen of this "Digital VHS" format. Apparently it's a new form of VHS that is capable of holding 50GB of data per cassette. That capacity allows it to hold high definition video (1080i?) and multi-channel sound, etc etc. Oh, and it's still backwards-compatible with S-VHS and regular VHS. The link has more info.
So what do you guys think? Will it be any competion for DVD, or will they counter with the blue laser (I forgot how much data that holds)? Either way it looks like a nice way to record HDTV broadcasts.
Let me know if I'm missing something or if this format is totally irrelevent.
