It would be nice if that regional coding had an expiry date. For example a DVD could be played anywhere 2 years after release. This would accomodate such market protection, while allowing full use of purchased DVDs. As it stands now, what happens when someone buys several DVDs and moves to a different area? If they move from Europe to North America, they'll likely have to buy a new player and won't be able to play their movies.
No way! - from "their" point of view - because then you would be able to buy movies from India, where the same titles are far cheaper than in Europe. Thus they will not set an expiry date. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFEHXTitTMYHG2NR9URAi6FAKCPxvrau1UVZYgj5NuVt4ogplpKJACdGhQV wqMoTQ/ecBPf3jXCZpSwS/w= =MhGt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
