There are also quite a lot of titles that are vcd only. The dual audio thing is a bit annoying. There are ways around it.

I'm not a fan of having to change discs in the middle of the movie either.

The quality will depend on the company & your TV set. Fortune Star VCD's are ususaly kind of crappy. Celestial's are better. If you watch the VCD on a tube TV & not a flat screen, that helps too.

Mei Ah Entertainment is one of the best when it comes to VCD IMO. I have a bunch of their VCDs.

The IVL Shaw Bros VCD's are really nice. I just got Rendezvous with Death and Shaolin Rescuers in the mail today. DDDHouse rocks!
