Region 2 DVD's

~GreenFire~ · 06-12-2008, 01:04 PM

Hi!

Does anyone know of any decent region 2 Belly dance dvd's? Instructional or performance. All the good ones I want are only available in region 1

I have Neena and Veena core abs already.
Thanx,

Jen

Thanx

I was looking online earlier and I found a post on the net saying that Rachel Brice's Tribal Fusion dvd's are actually all regions rather than just 1. Those are the ones I'm after, but Play.com also has them listed as Region 1? It's hard because I'm risking money buying them...do you know about these?
Thankyou

Since I tend to buy DVD's from the UK so I don't have to wait an additional 3 months to a year for the US version to come out, I invested in a all regions DVD player and use it all the time. Works well because I can then order from anywhere and not worry about regions. Had to have the DVD player cleaned once but other than that, I've never had any problems and I've owned it maybe 4 years. Just a thought.

I have had the Rachel brice and it played everywhere I tried. I have bought BD DVDs that the supplier told me were region 1 but when i played thenm they were region free. Amazon in particular does bot have the option for dvdmakers to say region free

Region coding is the biggest have out. We're lucky here in NZ as any (if not most) DVD players are region free. Recently NZ law required sellers to unlock DVD players free of charge on request. Most decided to do it up front.

Yeah...I've been looking at them on the net actually.
I do intend on buying one just as soon as I can afford it. I'm getting Married this August so I'm afraid most of my budget is already taken for the next 3months at least...that's why I posted this thread. I can afford the dvd, but not a top notch player, at least not right now anyway lol. Something for the wedding gift list maybe?

I think I will just buy the Rachel Brice dvd and pray that it works, failing that, I'll just have to wait till I have the money
