There were very valid reasons for customers to replace LPs with CDs and video tapes with DVDs; there was a massive improvement in quality in both cases. It certainly wasn't simply a case of the provider wanting to make money. On the (very) rare occasions that I watch a video tape now I'm appalled at how awful the quality is; one quickly forgets, watching DVDs, just what a huge jump in picture quality they represented.
