I, too, hope that WB will come to their senses ... however about the link you posted:
While I have used eBay to push out copies of the blooper tape, I don't agree with what this person is doing ... I've copied my VCDs for a few people and only one person was charged over $50 because they wanted labels printed as well, so I asked to recover the costs of the ink and the CD labels.
About VCDs though:
For one, while I'm sure they are decent quality, I downloaded these myself from the newsgroups when they were first posted, but they do not compare to actual DVD quality. I have also started download SVCDs to put to DVD myself, but again, while it's excellent quality, it does not compare to actual DVD quality.
Second, while VCDs are convenient for being played on the PC, not everyone likes to sit in front of a 15-17inch monitor when you can sit in front of a 32in TV. However, not all DVD players support the VCD/SVCD format. Many made today are purposely made *whithout* the VCD option. They are not exactly what the MPAA has in mind. The MPAA are, in fact, trying to put a stop to VCDs/SVCDs, so the DVD player producers are giving in to this and disabling the feature.
There are many nice reasons to have the eps in VCD, I personally like them because I have a DVD player that supports them, but to me nothing will ever replace the pristine quality a DVD will provide.
