Region Free DVD Players? Need help and advice...
Hey guys...
Alright, here's the thing. I want to be able to enjoy television shows, especially ones that have been cancelled. I notice that the UK has Futurama and Family Guy on dvd now. The recent FOX drama "24" is now also coming out there mid-August. Therefore, I have a question.
How can I obtain a region free dvd player?
Will I have to get some sort of cable that will allow my region free dvd player to work with my U.S television (just bought a new tv, hasn't even been delivered yet).
After I get the dvd player, where in the world can I find dvd's for it?
Would my region free dvd player hook up to surround sound speakers? With my new tv I got a BOSE dvd/cd player with BOSE surround sound speakers.
I'm completely new at this entire idea, I just found out about it less than an hour ago. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi.
The best place to post this is at the international forum but I'll try to answer your question.
The consensus over there is that the best player for what you have in mind is the Malata. It does pal to ntsc conversions and also will play dvd's from any region.
There are many threads on the Malata at the international forum
and I think that all of your questions will be answered.
Good Luck
