I'm going on holiday to America next week, and there's a dvd that I really want to buy.
Is there any way I can buy it, then get back to Britain, and copy it or restructure it, so I can watch it on a British dvd player?

I own a DVD recorder I bought in the U.K. It's a Sony.
It will play DVDs from anywhere in the world - it was region-free, straight from the box.
If you have bought a DVD player which is locked to Region 2, you have been very unlucky, I'm afraid. Almost all DVD players/recorders sold nowadays are region-free.

yes just bring it home with you and play it on your own DVD player if its region free (all DVD player can be made DVD region free by putting in a code but you will need to know model number and manufacture to find the code)
if its not you can recode it with Nero recode
by the way the pacific model onsale at asda(for £30.00) would play it no trouble

yea there's lots of programs that will make it region free like alcohol 120 or movie shrink or clone DVD in fact there's quite allot. You can find most at www.download.com there only trial programs there but will do the job
