| | A history of the vcr (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | VTRs were used by TV stations for recording a program and then showing it later, and other recording purposes, but quite obviously not by people at home, being big, heavy devices. |
 | | The kinescope was used to account for time delay between time zones. |
 | | Due to the fact that the film had to be processed before it could be used, couriers showed up with the "hot kines", as they were called, with very little time left before they had to show it. |
