The funny part is that I remember downloading videos in various formats and then converting them to VCD because DVD writers were still pretty expensive and I was a broke college student but my cheapo DVD player played VCDs as well as DVDs so I could watch stuff on the TV without dragging my PC down to the living room. There was also a point where said cheapo DVD player broke and I was converting to a specific VCD format that would play on my roommate's Dreamcast. I think I either needed to boot to one disc that loaded the player into memory and then pop in the special Dreamcast-compatible VCD to play but I could be wrong. It's been a while. All this because DVD burners and blank discs were still just outside of my budget.
