A Video CD (VCD) is a video format that uses ordinary recordable CD media
to store movies and can be used instead of a DVD or a VHS tape. VCDs
provide 30 to 60 minutes of VHS or better quality playback. VCDs are a
perfect solution for home movies and corporate videos because they are both
convenient to play and inexpensive to produce. VCDs can be played on
component DVD players, component VCD players and in any Windows or
Macintosh computer with a CD drive (requires player software). VCDs can
also be played anywhere in the world because they are region-code free.
Because they are produced on a low cost, light-weight media, VCDs are
inexpensive to produce and inexpensive to ship.
