DVD's between regions and bypass all this silly mess.

They're either lying, or just pig ignorant. Ask about
a PlayStation 2 - which any electronics outlet worth
its salt almost certainly stocks, BTW - it will play
DVDs from _any_ region (1 through 6) for the purchase
of a programme ('DVD Region X') for £20 (the PS2 costs
£200, and falling)...
Try Dixons or Currys (or shop on the Net) - they can
probably give you the programme along with the player
- oh, and you can play video games on it too ;^ ).
