For the record, the biggest reason vhs beat Betamax was the same thing Sony has struggled with in later years.

They chose to keep the media format proprietary, while JVC opened the VHS format for any company to make. That's how VHS became more ubiquitous, and it's a similar story as to why minidisc never became mainstream, and memory sticks are gone.

Which arguably falls under "marketed poorly", but I think the added context helps

Yes that indeed does help, thanks. I should have mentioned that explicitly.
