1000 dollars in 1972 is now 6198 dollars today, for a videocassette player weighing 100 lbs and to play it on a 9" TV screen. Times sure have changed :)

$1000 in 1972 would be $6,306 in 2020 and $30 in 1972 would be $189.21 today

Ok I know is I can’t eject the machine I assume it’s probably because I need to plug it in first but I’m using the cord with other machines at the moment

These things will never catch on. ;) Jokes aside, I have a 1974 Sony VO-2600 U-matic, and that thing weighs 70 pounds :D

As the owner of a VO-2610 myself, they are indeed bulky, heavy machines. :)

The U-Matic format. It didn’t catch on with consumers, but Sony would have better luck with another format a few years later.

U-Matic fared better with television stations for commercials and ENG, replacing film.

I have a similar videocasette player, but it's hase a few more nobs on the leftern side and has some interesting missing parts in the back. Looks like it was just an accesorie not an actual vital part. Is this machine compatible with standard VHS casettes? Sorry about my grammer English is only my second language.
