CED’s were like laserdisc’s but instead of the player reading the movie with a laser, the player read the movie with a needle like a record. The disc’s came in hard plastic sleeves which had to be placed into the player to get the disc out. Once the player had removed the disc it would spit out the movie sleeve. The disc’s could only hold two hours. One hour for each side. CED’s were only around in the early and mid 1980's.
