Additional comments:
Fantastic sounding home-made Video-CD of Dire Straits' performance at the Nelson Mandela 70th Birthday Tribute. Taken from German television. Great two minute speech by Billy Conolly who ended his speech with the moving words: "Ladies and gentlemen: with a happy heart and a tear in either eye: DIRE STRAITS!" It's the complete show of that legendary day including Mark's small speech before Brothers in Arms: "This one is for the gentleman in question. Best birthday party we've ever been to. Thanks for having us.  One humanity, one justice. "  Available on one CD-R.

Video-CD's can be played on DVD players or normal CD-ROM players using Windows Media Player. I can play this Video-CD on my external Sony DVD player (DVP-NS705V) without any problem. Note however that some DVD players have problems with Video-CD's. So I can only guarantee that they work on your PC CD-ROM drive!
