95445 2002-12-09 07:49:00 thanks billy, it worked. i bought mine for $250 on special at farmers. also got 5 year guarantee for another $100.

thats value for money considering, even if you have a popular brand dvd player, who keeps their electronic appliances that long anyway.

i assume you guys will have updated your equipment by then.

Scaremongering. I heard these types of comments over 3 years ago, and it still hasn't happened, also the way you refer to the new zoning would result in all dvd players not been able to read any discs and the new zone coding would not match that of the dvd players in peoples homes.
It is more like that they want to bring out new zone numbers that would have new security measures. But once again those dvd's won't run on dvd players people have today. This means no one would by that DVD, they couldn't sell any and hence their efforts would be fruitless.
