Answer 3

miniDV is an international standard created by manufacturers to replace VHS and all other consumer analog video tape formats. mini implies small so there is a "standard" size DV tape as well. The miniDV was specific for camcorders and is a smash success. However, before the home VCR standard size DV could get to market, the DVD became the standard for pre-recorded movies. DVDs had the advantage because they are MUCH cheaper to duplicate.  The Tivo does a better job for time-delay of television programs, so the standard size DV never caught on.
