In 1949, RCA introduced the 7-inch record as both a successor to older 78 rpm discs and a competitor to Creator/ColumbiaRecords' Long Play (LP) format. RCA's attempts at pushing 7-inch albums (which collected multiple discs like 78 rpm albums) fell flat, with customers overwhelmingly preferring the LP for that niche. Despite this, the 7-inch would remain standard for single releases until the advent of 12-inch singles in the mid-'70s and cassette and CD singles in TheEighties. On the flipside, RCA would be quick to jump on the UsefulNotes/CompactDisc bandwagon that decade, releasing albums on the format as soon as it became available outside of Japan.
