Hi Becky, I think you may be referring to the commonly used DVD-Rs which play in all regions, Zone 0 (All Region DVD). They usually won't play in players that were purchased over 10 years ago. Since it seems to be a regular problem for you, it might be worth putting a little preprinted sticker on the cases that have DVD-Rs saying it might not play in a DVD player that was purchased over 10 years ago. This will help you with the headache of the people who haven't updated their system in a while and want to return the film because it doesn't work in their old player. We sell DVD-Rs and haven't had any returned in the 5 years of selling from our website.
Hope that helps, Joyce On Feb 27, 2012, at 4:01 PM, Tatar, Becky wrote: > Hi, all > > We've finally found the DVD Tomorrow When the World Began. It's > available on Amazon as an All Region DVD.
