[Introspective] Playing the Performance DVD in North America

[Monochromatic Man]

You can get good quality region free ntsc/pal dvd
players on ebay for under $50.

I'm not seling these. I got one a year and a half ago
and haven't had any problems with it.
The majority of dvds I own are from the UK and they
all play fine.

Cheers,
Billy
