The Cellar - View Single Post - A very tiny bit of electronic civil disobedience

As you may know if you buy DVDs, most DVDs come with a "Region Code" that prevents the DVD from being played outside the region is was sold in. I have just struck a tiny blow for consumer choice by purchasing a CyberHome DVD player. It is an open secret that these players can easily have their region coding bypassed, and so play DVDs from anywhere in the world. I feel like such a criminal!!
