  Home Video
These formats had been developed with home video in mind, and although they were either too crude, complex, cumbersome or costly to catch on with consumers, both were successes in educational and industrial markets, allowing Sony to continue development work.
In 1978, inside buzz in the consumer electronics industry held that RCA was about to ship disc players with prices so cheap, and with so much software and marketing power behind them, that the Japanese upstarts would be sent packing and VCRs would go the way of 8-track tape players.
In all, the history of home video indicates that technology does not so much change society as better enable people to pursue their existing interests, be it the few who experiment with media alternatives, or the many who seek Hollywood thrills and romance from the comfort of their living room sofas.

Fun Fact: The adult admission at a Los Angeles movie theater in 1978 was $4.00 ("Superman: The Movie" was $4.50).
Below are a few titles that are often listed as being released in 1978, but, so far, we have found no record of them playing in Los Angeles that year.
Because of the regional release patterns used back then it is very possible the films played the drive-in circuit or small towns and then opened in major cities the following year.

If you don't remember the particulars about the 1978 pennant race, here they are: The Red Sox hadn't won a World Series in 60 years, but they had a terrific club in the mid-70s.
Boston was running away with the division, with their four starting pitchers a combined 22-5 through the end of May. Instead of Big Papi, the Red Sox had a dangerous slugger in Jim Rice.
Rice hit his 17th home run that season on May 28, ahead of the then record-setting pace of both Babe Ruth and Roger Maris.
