Digital Audio Tape (DAT) was an important technology in the music industry, allowing for high-quality audio recording and playback. It was introduced to the market in 1987 by a joint venture between Philips and Sony, two major electronics companies. DAT offered superior sound quality, improved portability and faster data transfer compared to analog tapes. Although it was replaced by newer digital music formats such as CD and MP3, it played a vital role in the development of digital audio technology.
