1. DID anyone else publish titles for VCD in the US that were not marketed as CD-i compatible but just general release like WB or somebody or were all VCD's tied into CD-i even if they were playable on other hardware? Yes. I know of two companies other than Philips that published a set of Video CD ...

Just as the Master List says, Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1/94) is yet another, bringing the total to 15 confirmed features released as Digital Video on CD-i in the US. I can't say how that one got left of the list of titles available as of June, 1994 from PIM without knowing when it actually hi...

More evidence that April, 1994 was the cusp. A Billboard magazine article of April 9, 1994, "Video CD Hardware, Software in NARM Spotlight," attributed the following information to Emiel Petrone, a senior VP with Philips Interactive Media: "Paramount CD titles now on the market will not be playable ...

I always wondered if there would be a specific date when Philips stepped away from the Digital Video on Cd-i standard and started to publish their movies as true video cd's. It seems that the very first generation (starting with Top Gun) of CD-i movies was published as 'Digital Video on CD-i'. We'v...
