What the fuck is a PAL DVD?

Ok, I am totally confused. I sell my dvds all over the world (no region code) with many customers in Europe, where they play fine. All this time I thought mpeg was mpeg, and the only difference on an European DVD player was whether the TV signal coming out the dvd player was NTSC or PAL?

Now, I start getting into higher end editing stuff, and you can make a PAL DVD. What the fuck is that? I start searching around on Google, and sure enough, there is such a thing.

So how come all this time all my customers in UK, Denmark,etc. have no problem with my good old American NTSC DVD's??? I have never had a single one that was unable to play them...

Are all Eurpoean players capable of playing both PAL and NTSC dvds???? If so, why would anyone sell a PAL DVD???
