Could somebody please help answer my query, I am going on a holiday top America for Christmas this year and I am hoping to buy a few CD's, I am aware that you cannot play American DVD's on British DVD Players, unless you hack into it, but i need to know is it the same with US CD's, will they play on British CD Players?

Thanks

The current CD format on almost all CDs is not regionally encoded and so can be played any where on any CD player.

Under the 'Red Book Agreement', drawn up shortly after CDs became commercially available, any CD made anywhere in the world, MUST play on any CD player anywhere in the world.

you have to check if your dvd player is multi regional. as we are in region 2 and US is region 1. and a diffrent format, NTSC and were PAL. but if you have a dvd burner on your PC, you can buy them and convert them on your PC to the correct format by copying them, and using DVDshrink (google it)
