Minidisc doesn't count, because it was a new format that didn't catch on (and actualy is still used a number of places), not a losing format.
And DAT got screwed by the record labels. It was 10 years ahead of its time, until recordable CDs finally came along.

MemoryStick (with that bonus bullshit DRM special MemoryStick)
I don't know why the Minidisc shouldn't count. Or DAT. They both got screwed by the rest of the industry; like Beta, both are still used professionally.
Jury's still out on the PSP format for anything but games.
