I want to purchase a DVD from your store but want to know what 'region code' is

When purchasing DVDs, it's important to consider the 'region code' as it can affect the ability to play the DVD in different parts of the world. A region code is a digital rights management technique designed to allow film distributors and television companies to control aspects of a release, including content, release date, and price, according to the region.

DVDs are typically encoded with a region code, restricting the area of the world in which they can be played. Here are the main DVD region codes along with the areas they cover:

1. Region 1: U.S., U.S. Territories, Canada
2. Region 2: Europe, Middle East, Japan, South Africa, Greenland
3. Region 3: Southeast Asia, East Asia (including Hong Kong)
4. Region 4: Australia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Central America, South America, Caribbean
5. Region 5: Eastern Europe, Indian subcontinent, Africa, North Korea, Mongolia
6. Region 6: China
7. 

When you buy a DVD, make sure that your DVD player is compatible with the region code of that DVD. For instance, a DVD with Region 1 coding will only play on players designated for Region 1 or on a multi-region DVD player.

At our store, the region code for each DVD is typically listed on the product page. If you're unsure which region code is compatible with your DVD player or if you need a DVD from a specific region, please feel free to reach out to our customer service for assistance.

Please note that Blu-ray discs and many modern DVD players are often region-free, meaning they can play discs from any region. It's always a good idea to check your equipment's specifications for compatibility
