Playing a DVD
A Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) is similar to a standard CD but
has greater data capacity. Because of this increased capacity,
full-length movies, several albums of music, or several
gigabytes of data can fit on a single disc. DVDs can be played
on a DVD player or a DVD drive-equipped computer. For more
information about playing DVDs, see your online User Guide.
