We now only sell our videos in DVD format. What is the difference between DVD and VHS?

VHS is the name of the format of video tape that you put into your VCR. It is cheaper, and almost every home used to have a VCR. However, the quality of the image is not as good as DVD, the image cannot be frozen very well to look at a single frame, and it takes a long time and quick eye/hand to fast forward to a particular chapter you may want to review. And of course you must rewind the tape when finished viewing it.

DVD is the newer format for video that has pretty much taken over. DVD players outsold VCRs back in 2001 for the first time, and most computers sold since around 2002 can also play them. Their image quality is super sharp, and you can stop the action on any frame you want indefinitely. You can also jump directly to any chapter you want (using the menu we provide) instantly, and there is never a need to wait for a rewind.

One added word with regard to DVDs. We have contracted the delivery of DVDs to CreateSpace. When you place an order for DVDs, you are actually ordering from them. Your order will arrive from CreateSpace.
