BETAMAX!!!
Oh wait, did you not hear me?
BETAMAX!!!

Betamax worked excellent, though

I won't argue that, but what was said was: Sony is not that dumb to spend all this money on technology to bring out a device that no one wants and does not work well
And noone wanted it, as VHS was "better" for the consumer
And Excellent depends on who you asked, VHS did everything better than Betamax did, the only real difference was the form factor of the cassettes :)

you still comparing apples to oranges

I don't see how?
It was like Blu-Ray vs HD-DVD as well, that one really could have went either way as well, just Sony got a couple more studios than Toshiba, then buh bye.
BD was the better one imo, but a lot of people liked HD-DVD - as it was cheaper
