The Betamax cassette tapes were a rival to VHS during the late 70s and into the 80s. When the VHS dominated the market, Betamax became obsolete. While not as easy to find as their VHS counterparts, they produced the Unico movies in the Betamax format and sometimes appear on auction sites.

This is not the Betamax cover but the Betamax and VHS art are identical for this release.
