Ironically, I think CDs started coming out the same time cassettes did.

Cassettes were around since the 60s. CDs were introduced by Philips around 82/83.

fftopic: and we should get back on topic, but cassettes were out in the 1970s and CDs started to show up around 1983 or so.

And I remember first reading about HDTV around 78/79. The article, in TV Guide, said it was about 20 years away.

Maybe the material on it, but not the disc. The technology wasn't ready until 1982 and late '82 at that.Jovan said:

Funny how I mention 8 tracks and now this topic has turned around towards what media source was available at the time. That man in the parachute pants seemed like a pretty cool guy.
