Just received MJ`s Ghosts from Amazon, first was kind of worried about the condition of the VCD, but was pleasantly surprised, now I`m really happy, of course HD would be better, but much better than what you see on youtube.Also Amazon has pretty good service, don`t have to wait for my stuff forever.Wish I would get Moonwalker vid, too. Love MJ ..........Forever !

Ghosts is a masterpiece.
You can own it on VHS tape, as I did before, or just look for a digital copy that lasts forever.
Once you understand this is a VCD, working on computers and some kind of DVD players, then you have a precious item in your hand.
The quality is pretty good, beeing this VCD a copy of the taped version.
Don't look for Chapters, Multilanguage or Subtitles. VCD just plays the same as the VHS version.
Enjoy MJJ performance.

Just to make sure you understand what you are purchasing: "Ghosts" was never released on DVD. What you are purchasing is NOT a DVD. This is from 1997 and it is a Video CD (VCD.) That is not the same thing as a DVD. It is an audio CD that also plays video, which was somewhat ahead of its time back then. Now the technology is fairly common. But it was originally made to play the video on a computer, not a DVD player.
As it turns out, most DVD players will be able to read it anyway, but not all. If your DVD player is one of the older ones or one of the less expensive ones, or made by certain brands, it may not play...but understand it's not supposed to play. It was not made for a DVD player. So if it works on your DVD player, then you are fortunate. But if you are one of the few for whom it doesn't, that doesn't mean the product is defective or a bootleg. You are trying to play it on equipment for which it was not originally designed.
But again, it will play on most DVD players, especially newer ones.
If not, it will play on your computer.
However you get to play it, you've got to appreciate the brilliant artistry of Michael Jackson. Enjoy!

This VCD might not play in some DVD players. It was manufactured and distributed in Asia for use with their technology. This is not stated in the description.
