Anyone Still Buying VCDs? - Blu-ray Forum

OrlandoEastwood · 09-29-2009, 09:22 AM

Just wondering if anyone else still does. I'm contemplating picking up the Thai Dubbed VCDs for Once Upon a Time in China. It's $4.50 each for the first three films. Like, most time when I buy VCDs is if they are exclusive released in Thailand to combat piracy over there. Catalyst Alliance Thailand does all those releases.

Not me, can't be bothered really

Nice VCDs! been awhile since I used those... use to enjoy making them back in the early 2000s hehe.

Well, I don't think that they will go anywhere in Asia anytime soon. They've dominated the market for about 10 - 13 years now.

nope, but if there was a film I wanted and it was the best version available I would buy it on vcd. Hence why I still buy dvds and hddvds, for me its about the film and the best presentation available for the film, not the format.
