They didn’t get their parents together at the Enchantment Under The Sea dance I guess? 😉

There were also video jukeboxes back in the day, although I never saw one in my neck of the woods. Not sure what format they used.

There was also a Laserdisc based system I saw in music stores and some department stores with music sections. A flat touch sensitive pad with pictures of current albums allowed you to select a music video from each album. The selection was changed every few months. Not sure what year that began, but the discs turn up on Ebay.

Some guys I knew back in college put together a music video show and wrote letters to the music labels and got boxes of U-matic tapes in return. Can’t recall if any of the big labels sent tapes. The show never went anywhere beyond the pilot as the teacher in charge of the tv station wanted more effing talk shows.
