Magnetic Video Corporation was established by Andre Blay in 1968 in Michigan, United States. Magnetic Video was the first distributor to release VHS tapes commercially (home video) and is therefore of great historic and cultural importance, for it started a “revolution”: bringing movies into people’s homes. Magnetic Video released VHS tapes between 1977 and 1981. Magnetic Video was acquired by 20th Century Fox Video (Home Entertainment) in 1980.
