A DVD is also known as a Digital Video Disc. Movies that were once on VHS have now been moved to DVD. For the first time, DVD sales have outnumbered VHS sales and it costs less to put things on DVD.

Movies aren't the only things that are on DVD. People are putting their digital pictures on a DVD and can go to their local photo outlet and get pictures printed at a low cost.

As far as movies go, you don't have to rewind them and you don't have to worry about the quality going bad on the tape.

Of course, the only bad thing that I can come up with about the DVD is that it can scratch easily, but a DVD can hold so much more and the sound from a DVD is so much better, no matter what kind of sound system you may have.
