: I'm still not clear on the point of VCDs. The main reasons I want Indy DVDs are for better picture and sound quality and cool extras like cut scenes, trailers, and commentaries. It sounds like VCDs are worse than the recently released remastered tapes as far as picture quality and there isn't anything extra on them.

: My impression of VCDs is that they are prevalent in places like China because they are easily pirated. They really have no benefit over the currently available Indy VHS tapes.

I think the VCD's picture quality is pretty poor. I have several Chinese international student friends, and they have VCD players. The picture often gets blurry, or pixellated. I never payed attention to the sound, I was pretty turned off by the picture quality. But you are right, the are easily pirated and they are very cheap.
