or DVD = "Digital Versatile Disc" ;)


"DVD" was originally used as an initialism for the unofficial term "digital video disc".[2] It was reported in 1995, at the time of the specification finalization, that the letters officially stood for "digital versatile disc" (due to non-video applications),[3] however, the text of the press release announcing the specification finalization only refers to the technology as "DVD", making no mention of what (if anything) the letters stood for.[1] A newsgroup FAQ written by Jim Taylor (a prominent figure in the industry) claims that four years later, in 1999, the DVD Forum stated that the format name was simply the three letters "DVD" and did not stand for anything.[4] The official DVD specification documents have never defined DVD. Usage in the present day varies, with "DVD", "Digital Video Disc", and "Digital Versatile Disc" all being common.

The Canberra one is gone now too, its now a Video/DVD shop!, aint it great when things just fall into place like that, never happened to me and never will, always in the wrong place at the right time and always at the right place at the wrong time, what goes up doesnt always come down, ever had a Currawong tick off with one of your thongs?

I stand, or rather sit, corrected - but regardless of the meaning of the letters DVD, the shops still hire out video recordings - only now they are in DVD format, not VHS videocassette format.
