For the record, my Daewoo DVD player that I got off eBay awhile back =
with a All-Region NTSC/PAL modification works fine at playing my old =
20KW RSL DVD, which is all region, but in PAL format. Only cost $120 or =
so when I got it awhile back, and I am sure there is cheaper options =
available.

About a year ago I bought a cheap APEX model 1100W DVD player (about =
$50 US) and converted it to region free. In THEORY it should also play =
PAL discs on my NTSC TV, but I have not tried that yet.=20
It that Oils DVD comes along - I will be ready for it!

It looks like the Oils are going to be part of this series =
(Whammo, Chaos and
Sanity all have it listed), but it appears to be an Australia only =
release, which
means PAL video format and possibly region 4 only encoding.
