Can anybody tell me when Regio-2 Season 5 will be released? I am waiting as fast as I can so...

Hello TM,

Well, there is good and bad news. The good news is that it seems that all 5 boxes have been (so far) and will continue to be identical to the R1 versions. The bad news is that you will have to wait until 15/11/04 for season 5 in region 2! I know, it is a crime. That is why I didn't wait around and got the R1 version.

I am also going to get the B5 movie boxed set from an R1 dealer because we really get done here in the UK on that one. It is missing 2 FILMS!!! Not one, but TWO!! What are you supposed to do if you want to listen to the commentary on "THE GATHERING" ? Buy it as a stand alone disc I'll bet (knowing Warner) and IN THE BEGINNING? Same story mate. Yep Region 1 for me.

FYI, It may serve you well to upgrade to a multi-region DVD player. You can get them from approx ú40.00 at places like ARGOS - and if they are not region free from the box...you can easily find the handset hack on line! My mum wanted region free at a budget so I popped along, spent her ú40 and within 2 mins of plugging it in...was putting out R1 pictures from the box! Cool. And it was a fairly smart (though basic) machine too. Nice and slim.

All the best on your choices....

OK, so you are not going to find an ARGOS in the Netherlands, (really must learn to read!!) But I am sure that there must be such store types in you area (even if not by that name). Or electrical discount stores that may import the cheaper Chinese/Korean/Thiwanese type machines of the type that I describe.

Hope that clears it up alittle.....
