    Tokyo museum offers visitors 'flashback' to defunct technology

    Tucked away in a corner of central Tokyo, the Extinct Media Museum
    lives up to its name.

    From Betacam videotapes to floppy disks and vintage Sony devices, the
    museum is a showcase for old cameras and telecom equipment, including
    a 1916 Japanese-made "Lily" still camera, its oldest exhibit.

    Amidst the three-roomed museum's cluttered shelves, visitors like
    59-year-old Mika Matsuda can rewind to the past and the gadgets that
    were once in everyday use
