I don’t recall that being the case, but my memory could be faulty.
As I recall, the High Sierra Format - which served as the basis for ISO 9660 — was widely used prior to ISO 9660’s standardization and adoption.

Some big vendors at the time that made things like library indexes and legal references used their own completely wacky in-house formats that required lots of fiddling with device drivers. They'd often only work with a handful of CD-ROM devices as well, meaning you're stuck with your $2000 single-speed top-loading NEC drive for eternity. High Sierra won out, it was the logocal winner, and there was, thankfully, no standards war like with HD-DVD vs. Blu-Ray.
