Retro Tech Tuesday: WGRZ-TV Kills The Laserdisc

DateTuesday, July 20, 2010 at 7:11AM

Is this it? Is this the smoking gun revealing why laserdisc players never took off? We will let you be the judge, as this segment from WGRZ-TV in Buffalo shows why you might want to stick with your VCR. Granted it's the early 1990's, and they didn't want to talk solely about the Buffalo Bills then (or now, for that matter), but could the laserdisc have reigned supreme, at least until the "bag of hurt" known as blu-ray arrived?
