Hi,
I dont know if this is relevant to the discussion, but in Sweden (not a region-1 country) people where so pissed at the regionsystem (and the fact that most computer geeks could go around it, but the average person could not) that the whole region concept had to be removed. Ie. this forced the large companies to rethink and nowadays we have commercial region-free DVD players in most stores.
That's an interesting change - a couple of years ago, friends from Sweden told me that the standard was to strictly sell only region-enforcing DVD players and then charge a bit extra for installing the region-free mod chips that everybody bought. I guess they've stopped bothering with the games by now.
