[[File:45rpminsert.jpg|thumb|[[Columbia Records|Columbia]] and [[RCA Victor]]'s competition extended to equipment. Some turntables included [[45 rpm adapter|spindle size adapters]], but other turntables required snap-in inserts like this one to adapt Victor's larger 45&nbsp;rpm spindle size to the smaller spindle size available on nearly all turntables.<ref name="spindle">{{cite web |url=http://arcmusic.wordpress.com/2008/03/20/the-45-adaptor/ |title=The 45 Adaptor |website= ARChive of Contemporary Music, or "Would You Take My Mind Out for a Walk" |date=20 March 2008 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160310142228/https://arcmusic.wordpress.com/2008/03/20/the-45-adaptor/ |archive-date=10 March 2016 }}</ref> Shown is one popular design in use for many years.]]

The older 78 rpm format continued to be mass-produced alongside the newer formats using new materials in decreasing numbers until the summer of 1958 in the U.S., and in a few countries, such as the [[Philippines]] and [[India]] (both countries issued recordings by [[the Beatles]] on 78s), into the late 1960s. For example, [[Columbia Records]]' last reissue of [[Frank Sinatra]] songs on 78&nbsp;rpm records was an album called ''Young at Heart'', issued in November 1954.<ref name="ReferenceA">''(Book)'', "Frank Sinatra: The Columbia Years: 1943–1952: The Complete Recordings", unnumbered at back.</ref>
