Jokes aside...

 

It's called versatile because it can be used for video, audio and data, as

well as other future formats. So far, the major use of the new DVD format is

for the movie industry. In fact, sometimes DVD refers to Digital Video Disc.

 

It cannot be used in a regular CD-ROM drive. You need one of the new DVD

drives. They are becoming cheaper these days, and they are backward

compatible: a DVD drive will read normal good old CDs.
