The insane part is the video date back to the 80s not from the 70s. The reason the technology look so dated is because it was first developed in the early 60s. RCA spent two decade and $600 million to get this idea to market! By the time RCA finally got their product out LaserDisc was already a thing and DVD was well on it way.

LaserDisc was analog, ironically.
