Infopedia was a popular 1980s CD encyclopedia. A company named FutureVision released it.
I was privileged to work there before it became obsolete as many CD products did during the dawn of the early Dot Com Traditionalists of what we now referred to “the Internet.”At the time I was transitioning from a career as a full time guitarist, and guitar teacher.
Future Vision was quite ahead of its time. This was the era of add-in cards for the “IBM” platform of Desktop PCs.John Beekman My fellow employee (and a very strong technician) at Voyetra, was quite effusive about the sound that this card could create. However this card was way ahead of its time. Any product that was too ahead of the business curve, had a sad fate.
But Infopedia was quite successful, so much that we suffered from lawsuits due to our film clips (which we felt they were in the public domain), as a start up firm we were not in a position to endure any law suites. I recall the clip of the Beatles at Shea Stadium, which was films by a news station, however the rights to reproduce were unclear, to say the least!I was probably the only member of the company to attend that concert. Rick Winston (of https://www.montpelier-vt.org/ fame, originator of the Savoy movie Theater in that town), took me and his brother John to the concert. We could not hear much music, since the crowd were screaming so loud.
Future Vision had most it's technical work done in Israel, many of my fellow workers were of the Othodox persuasion. We were all technical, and intelligent. It was a fun place to work, I was one of the techsupport core.
