About this listen

 Join host Alexandra Reeves as she examines Sony's Betamax disaster: how superior technology lost to VHS because of one fatal flaw — a 60-minute recording limit when consumers needed two hours for movies. Through market data and engineering analysis, this episode reveals why technical excellence means nothing if it ignores what people actually need. Better doesn't always win.
