It's legal in Switzerland to buy and use code free DVD players, you get them everywhere, it's the norm here . But, there will be DVD's with a copy protection that does not let them be played on code free players..... It's (still) legal in Switzerland to circumvent copyright schemes of software and DVD's. It's not anymore legal to do so in Germany! Greetings Markus
