751294 2009-02-25 22:34:00 So I can't find the DVD I'm looking for in a local store. What online retailers do you guys use? Delivery time is more important than price.

(I wonder why P2P services flourish)

Is the local store part of a chain? They should be able to tell you if any of their other local stores have the title.

And of course amazon - if you want PAL versions though go to amazon.co.uk, while still not region 4, at least they have the right number of lines on the screen.

Maybe before 1995 but these days everything is multi standard..

Other than that, iTunes (nz store) has movies available for download, but as I understand they can't be burned to disk :(
