OFF: Followup DVD question

[Rik Rx]

Those in the UK can easily buy modified machines, or get existing machines
modified to play any disc irrespective of the region or added RCE coding
which is added to some R1 discs to supposedly prevent this. You do NOT need
a NTSC capable tv.

www.multiregeionmagic.co.uk sell players like the panasonic RV41 at £229
with the modification already done - list price in the UK is £300 for the
unmodded one. http://www.multi-region.co.uk/index.htm is another good
source.

I tend to buy the DVD's with the best spec, as US and UK releases differ in
content, although US ones tend to be cheaper.


Hope this helps
