What is a "laserdisc"?

A laserdisc is a type of disc used for storing and playing video and audio content. It was introduced in the late 1970s and was known for offering high-quality video and audio compared to other formats of its time.

Laserdiscs were popular for their superior picture and sound quality but were eventually replaced by more modern formats such as DVDs and Blu-rays.
