DivX was used before XviD, but I believe you are referring to VCD (.vcd and sometimes .bin and .cue). VCDs for movies were very popular. Many movies came in two 700MB files. I still have a couple of old DVD players ( 5 disc carousel) that will play VCD and DivX/XviD.
I still have a couple Plextor CD and DVD burners that can copy protected CDs/DVDs (along with BlindWrite or similar app).
I never used Zip disks for storage. Mainly to transfer files from school computer to home computer and vise versa.
School!!!!?? I assume you are talking you became a Teacher latter in life?? The only thing i remember from school is those fill in punch cards

Just Kidding......
Got rid of my Plextor long time back (IDE), was not on the list for burning Xbox 360 games, and thanks buddy for the memory of VCD, i had a 5 disc player as well but no go in the VCD's, you always had to look around for the cheap players to work or if i remember the better Pioneers also worked?? I had Onkyo and Denon players but no go either. And i just purged those as well, and how about at least 40 Direct TV and Dish Network receivers (Dish and Bell worked for both), and at least 20 activation cards!, and a ton of boards!!..
Oh the good ol days with having wide open channels
