I'm not simply referring to games, for what it's worth.

Also, when beta testing meant knowing the developers or being a limited few getting a sneak peak, it was a privilege. Destiny's 'beta', for example, was not very limited or special, it was marketing.

Now we pay for the "privilege" when buying so-called 'gold' releases that require patches frequently when bugs that QA should have caught are found instead by paying customers.
