4063.8Video-CD or CD-Video?NPSS::NEWTONThomas NewtonWed Apr 23 1997 18:0111
    When you're talking about Video-CDs, are you talking about the MPEG-1
    movies on PC-compatible CD-ROMs that have recently started showing up
    in computer stores?  (These discs offer a whole movie on one CD and I
    presume the video quality is terrible.  I assume the audio quality is
    less than CD because even the audio for most full-length movies would
    not fit on a single CD unless compressed and/or reduced in quality.)

    Or about the CD-Video discs that briefly showed up several years ago?
    (Those discs offered 5 minutes of video and 20 minutes of CD audio on
    a 5" disc, and 8" discs were.  The audio was CD-quality.)
