If you are in North America, your DVD player will most likely only play NTSC Region 1/Region 0 DVDs. You might, however, be surprised to find that some players not advertised as "all-region" players (that is, players that will play discs from all over the world) can, infact, perform this task with a few simple alterations (usually done through one's remote control).
Multi-region players can now be had for as little as $40 and certainly no more than $100. There is no need to seek out companies who sell "modded" (modified) players for prices over $100. This is a total waste of your money. You can find players that will easily go all-region at your local Best Buy or Radio Shack store or on-line through inexpensive, big-time electronics dealers.
Be sure you can play the discs you purchase from us before you order them!
