Default Question concerning HAND dual disc
Hi guys,
I'm just about to buy a HAND dual disc off an auction, but I realised it is an American edition with WSYCGH as a bonus track.
My question is will the DVD side play in my (European) DVD-player? I heard some stuff about DVD regions etc, including stories concerning American DVDs that didn't play in European players. Is it true?
Thanks for your help!

A lot of players here are multi-region, you can find codes to make them such, search for your model of player online and see if you can find it, searching for things like region code/hack/crack.

On SWW DualDisc it says All Regions (ordered mine from Canada), so I suppose it is the same thing with HAND. You shouldn´t have any problems playing it with your R2 player.

Normally, no. Only DVDs bought in Europe will work in European players. Like Mr.Neo there said, you can update some players to be region-free, but it usually requires a little bit of technical knowledge or a "secret" code. And not all players can be modified like that.

you should buy it!
first lf all - the who says duet- is a kick a** song
I bought my dual disc in the USA
I live in a region 2 dvd area- and it works ok
[do you have a dvd player or a dvd drive on your computer ?
I'm asking cause a dvd drive has an option for switching regions for 5 times and then it locks on the last one (buy you can dl something to open it up)]

besides the dvd had some songs from the second borgat show ( the 'boxset' show and those are great)
and the cd itself- is so much nicer cause it's cardboard and not the regular jewel case
