"webcards" in vhs tapes?

Recently I got the creature walks among us on vhs and inside the package was 2 small mini cd discs called a webcard. I know this is kind of an outdated business cd format but why would this be put with the vhs? I guess it contains the movie as well? Do other video tapes have these things? Anyone ever run across them? The box says nothing about it.

They're usually CD-ROMs- check them on a computer. Best Buy had one of these with their first shipment of the "Terminator 3" DVD.

Being a laserdisc person I always thought it was pathetic how many VHS tapes came with a CD, yet the same title on laserdisc didn't, that is if it was available on laserdisc at all! VHS tapes ought to come with audio cassettes!

Interesting. The coolest thing I've ever found in a VHS tape was a very scary looking man's I.D. card inside a Busch Gardens vacation planning tape. If you do find out if they are CD-Roms let us know what kind of format the files are. That sounds interesting.
