*VCD (Video CD) is typically comparable to a VHS tape in terms of quality.
**SVCD (Super Video CD) has the capacity to hold about 33 minutes of good quality video on
a 700MB CD. Quality is better than VCD but still less than DVD.
***Long DVD has the capacity to record up to 6 hours and 51 minutes on a 4.7GB single layer
DVD and up to 12 hours & 21 minutes on an 8.5GB dual layer DVD. This will typically result in
lower than DVD quality video however, because it is compressing more video onto a disc than
it is normally designed to hold.
