Hi

Does anyone out there know where you can get hold of the region 0 version of the Beastie Boys Anthology DVD?

All the sites I have looked at (including beastieboys.com) state that the disc is r1 but I have seen a few reviews of a r0 version.

Cheers in advance for any help,

P9.

Hmm, not seen it region 0 anywhere. I got the r1 one from amazon.

I presume you've tried the usually places (play247, express, amazon etc)

A frind of mine bought it from play247. He said it was region 0. It plays on his brothers playstaion 2 although in black and white (ntsc problem).

I've done a bit more scouting around & I'm still no wiser allthough a guy on another forum assured me that it was region 0 & the confusion was caused by it being a US only NTSC disc.

I also read that alot of Criterion discs are region free - don't know if this is true but the Criterion website doesn't state any regions in there catalogue.

So I'm taking a risk & have ordered a copy, fingers crossed.

Ta again.

If anyone out there is interested the Beastie DVD is region free.

You just have to make sure that your kit is NTSC friendly.
