Do DVD region codes apply to data discs that you burn at home, or just movies that you buy?

Question

In other words, if I burn movies, music, pictures, games etc. in Israel onto a DVD, could my friends in other parts of the world read that disc on their computers?

Answer 1

I think the DVD that you are burned have been stripped off the region protection. Only movies with region coded have the protection.

Answer 2

Hi. It depends on the source of the DVD. The region codes are set up to prevent making copies in one region and selling them in another. But a region one disk burned anywhere with a region one burner will play on another region one player.
