I have surfed through a few Japanese VCD retailers sites and seen VCDS as low as $3 each! Are these just some sort of copy of an original? Similar to a "burned" music cd? I purchased one and the picture qulity is excellent but I cannot make the control jump to different scenes in the film like with a DVD.

Can someone clarify this? Thanks!

The resolution and sound quality is much lower. The quality of a VCD (if well done) is a little less than a VHS tape. VCDs are stamped on regular CDs, and they do not hold nearly as much data as a DVD.

You can easily make your own VCDs at home with a CD burner.

Also, I think the VCDs are much shorter, no?

I think VCD are good if you been downloading a bunch MPEG files from Morpheus or any other file sharing program that you can download bootleg porno video or shitty video clips.

Basically...

DVDs have pristine image quality (well, at least they´re SUPPOSED to), while VCDs have that retro Atari-look (blocks and more blocks).
