Is your living room really that small that a roundie TV or combo unit wouldn't fit? I could understand your situation if you lived in an apartment (I live in a very small one-bedroom unit and certainly have no room for consoles here, as I had when I lived in a three-bedroom house with a basement in the suburbs; my TV and related equipment sit on and in an oak utility cart, and my stereo is on a stand next to my computer), but I can't imagine your living room being that short on space.

One interesting side note about the simulcasts is that a rival FM rock station in Chicago bought commercials on the NBC TV station during the show, so their commercial's audio was played on the competing station. Soon after, the station with the simulcast was ready for this, and when the commercial came on, they dubbed in their own parody audio for the commercial, with things like a toilet flushing when the competitor's logo came on screen. I still have several Beta Hi-Fi tapes of those music videos, including a couple of complete Friday Night Videos shows. They would be fun to pull out and play if I get a Beta VCR hooked up again.

I was in college in Providence, RI during 1983-4 school year and remember watching Friday Night Videos on my 12" Sharp B&W and listening to it in Stereo on WBRU which was Brown University's Station if I'm not mistaken. Had the sound coming out of my Sanyo ghetto blaster usually with a cassette tape loaded and waiting on pause for a good song to record. Yes if you wanted songs for free back in the day you had to record them off the radio since there wasn't any internet yet. Actually I know that I still have that tape around somewhere.
