Something is wrong with the Picture Quality paragraph:

> …its Beta I speed of 1.57 inches per second (ips) offered a higher horizontal resolution (approximately 250 lines vs 240 lines horizontal NTSC) … However, the introduction of Beta II speed … reduced Betamax's horizontal resolution to 250 lines.

I don't know what the right values are, but it can't have been reduced from 250 lines to 250 lines. Steveluscher (talk) 19:14, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"En" shouldn't mean "American" in English language Wikipedia articles (en.wikipedia.org)[edit]

hi,

In this article, Europe doesn't exist. We see the video format war from an American businessman's perspective.

I call this bad.

Neither video format is American. Nothing makes the United States role in the story predominant.

Or at least, nothing makes it normal that Europe is totally neglected.

Writing history from an American perspective is okay in an American school book.

Neglecting, even omitting Europe from that is not okay...

Writing history from an American perspective in a Wikipedia article, omitting Europe is something even worse...

Let this article be the first one to be improved to meet this standard.

(And if this standard doesn't even exist, let's establish it)
