This is true, I live in USA and have several different region DVDs and in my GE DVD player loopholes menu I can turn off the region and it plays them all on my US TV. When I burn DVDs(for personal use!!!) I burn them region free. So this region thing is USELESS!!! I even have PAL Laserdisc player and some PAL Lasers which I play through my DVD recorder and they play fine also.
