what are they exactly because I've never heard of them?

[juanch]

They're the DVD's with poor printing and cheap looking cases to keep cost down.
They sell as low as php100

at eto pa worse--

i recently bought one of the 3 discer superfriends boxset thinking at at P225 sale (50% off P450) this is quite a steal.  

when i played it at home, the quality was horrendous.  parang VCD.  to my surprise, VCD pala talaga!  so it's a VCD in DVD packaging.  true enough nakalagay nga dun sa boxset na VCD.  but can you blame me for not checking?  naka boxset ng DVD kaya i thought DVD.

i returned immediately to astro.  buti naman they accepted my reasoning.

so beware if those kiddie boxsets.  they're VCD in a DVD packaging.

Same thing happened to me with the Road Runner boxed set. Shock of my life when I played it, then just noticed the words VCD instead of DVD on the packaging after the fact.
