The misuse of the word "DVD" on paysites.

[Patrick_S]

Have anyone else noticed that on many sites they use the word "DVD" as a synonym for "movie"? It often says things like "join my site and get access to all my DVD´s". You don´t get access to any DVD´s when you join the site, they don´t send you any DVD´s in the mail (which is the only way i can interprit "access to DVD´s"). What you get is access to download the movies from the site.
I don´t know if this is just a mistake and they actually think that "DVD" and "movie" mean the same thing or if it´s just a way to trick people into joining the site (it wouldn´t surprise me the least) but i suggest they stop it right away.

Oh, and for those that don´t know: DVD stand for "Digital Versatile Disc" and is the round shiny thing that is used to store data on.

You can also have movies that are dvd quality on a website. That is why they say that. I have 4 different options of the video's on my website.
