Video Home System

The Video Home System (VHS) is the recording and playing standard for video
cassette recorders (VCRs), developed by JVC.

It became the standard in the 1980s after competing with Sony's Betamax and,
to a lesser extent, Philips's Video 2000.

A VHS-cassette contains a long magnetic tape which is wound from one of two
spools to the other, allowing it to slowly pass by the reader head of the
video cassette recorder.

Several improved versions of VHS exist, most notably S-VHS, an improved
analog standard, and D-VHS, which records digital video onto a VHS form
factor tape.

Although VHS officially stands for Video Home System some early reports
claimed that the initials originally stood for Victor (Company) Helical Scan
system.
