Er, yes they do ...

Anthony.

I for one have hundreds of DVD's and a few Blu-rays. Most of them are old TV series.

VLC for UWP 2.0 Beta released June 29, 2016:

VLC Is Finally Available for Windows 10

I tried it...looks nicer then old version but still appeared to be buggy...It is actually still in beta which is why you probably have to get it from the link (it doesn't as yet show up in the microsoft store unless you go through that link)...Videos often played with a broken up picture and search is pretty bad too...

I'd say...still not ready for prime time....so far, nothing like the original (non store app) version...
I removed it for now...looks like it needs a long way to go yet...

Yeah, it's got a long way to go before it's competitive!
Featureless, unstable and really buggy!

What advantage does this have over the desktop version? Just see no reason to use this.

At the moment, none whatsoever!
I don't even see a hint of a way to sync content on other devices!
Very premature release, unfortunately!

I just tested the new VLC UVP app... is this a joke? It's even more buggy than the old one. Unbelievable.

Um, people do realize this app is technically still a beta, right? And that betas are usually buggy, and lack features? Don't get me wrong, I installed the UWP app, but I realize it's not finished yet.
