Another note about VCDs is that they are restrained to 45 minutes per disc due to the limit of storage available to the CD format.
I have a decent selection of VCD movies and I will be the first to say that they don't hold a candle to DVDs for convenience, picture quality, or options. That said, if you can get a good deal on a VCD for a series you're only going to watch once or twice and don't care if it has the absolute best picture or not then go with the VCD.
It's one of those cost vs. quality things.
Sometimes low quality doesn't matter that much.
