Is this for real? It's not big. It fits right in with the rest of my music.

>>119938406
Short answer, video quality. It was FAR better video quality than VHS or even BETAmax.
The drawbacks weren't the physical size. They were that each side of the disc only held 30 minutes worth of video, so a two-hour movie meant two discs and you had to stop and flip the disc or swap discs every 30 minutes. Of course this runtime worked great with episodic media like anime.
Also, the cost. My LD player than I bought in 1991 cost about 800 bucks. And that was a bargain. That's the equivalent to almost 1500 bucks today.

>>119938423
Girl or boy, though.

>>119938406

Because it was the first video based disk system. Its like asking why anyone would ever use huge 32mm film when VHS exists. Because 32mm film existed 50 years before VHS.

By comparison, the transition from Laserdisk to DVD was ridiculously fast.

DVD was ridiculously cheap(comparatively), held far more data and time, and began the revolution of having a menu for special features, multiple audio tracks, optional subtitles, chapter selection, bonus features like behind-the-scenes of making-of featurettes. Not to mention previews that you didn't HAVE to watch first.
