Here in the US, that is not the case. It is much harder to find such DVD
players.
Because they contravene the DMCA act?
Possible but more likely because the 'popular' stuff is released on Region 1 and
the yanks (as a mass market) are so insular they think there be dragons over the
sea... (over the state line in many cases!)
What's the commercial driver for the multi-region player market in the rest of
the world?
Oh yes - availability of pop-culture drivel (yeah, I enjoy some of it too!) is
earlier and cheaper in Region 1.
So what's the driver _in_ Region 1?
