There is so called "Software release life cycle". Beta version is the third stage. Beta product is somewhat stable for mass testing but not all features are implemented or they might/will change in next versions. Beta product is in early development stage. It is only released to test it as much as they can.

Several millions of people will test software faster are more accurate then doing inside testing.
