I got a good deal on a beta hifi unit, only to find the next week that MTS had been added (which I expected) to the new decks (for more money). Then I saw that Super Beta was advertised, and it's been mentioned in several articles on the net. I understand it is compatible with beta. What is Super Beta? How is it technically better? Does it improve on beta hifi as well? Also, I know this is a dumb obsolete question, but what is the difference in recording schemes between beta and vhs? Are there any currently available books or periodicals on this stuff? -- Neal Macklin (408) 737-5214 ...{hplabs,ihnp4}!amdahl!nzm10 [There are no opinions expressed in this article].
