The original quality (in my opinion) is not "Hollywood" quality (... they look like they're made in China ), but you can clearly see the video and learn a lot. One of the video's has a poor soundtrack that's pretty distorted, but there's so much information packed into this set that that becomes insignificant. Watching these is like going to study in China. I'm an acupuncturist myself and I learned much that I never learned in school and actually saw the things I had only read about in books before. Very worthwhile.
