When movies were released on tape, they were either "priced for
rental" (typically around $99) or priced for sale (usually around
$39.) Nothing prevented the "Average Joe" from buying tapes priced
for rental, or renting tapes priced for sale. These were just prices
assigned to new releases depending on what the releasing studio
thought was best for that release.
