Bad Avalon news -- barebones & dub-only
AnimeNation says the R1 Avalon DVD will be dub-only and without extras. The MSRP is $19.95, which is pretty brazen considering the 2-disc Korean release can be had for only a few dollars more.
If anybody from Buena Vista is listening, you just lost a sale. R3, here we come!

Just by the Region Free HK version, the disc says that it is region 3 but it is Region free. It can be bought for around 10$, and has a good print and pretty good sound complete with english subs. I bought it and don't regret it.

once again, if you don't agree with Disney (not Di$ney)'s choices in marketing, the best you can do as a consumer is to ignore the product being released and put your hard earned money to a product that is put out by a company that listens to your suggestions or requests

I should have known Disney would screw this up, after shelving the distribution of it for something like 3 years. 
Maybe time to track down a Region 0 copy...
